"Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may be innocent and pure as God's perfect children, who live in a world of corrupt and sinful people.

You must shine among them like stars lighting up the sky, as you offer them the message of life."

(Philippians 2.14-16 GNB)

God expects me to shine among a world of corrupt and sinful people. Not by out-corrupting nor out-sinning, but by being innocent and pure.

My life is to offer the message of life, not the message of the world.

Lord,
may in this dark world
my life be a star
