071: We are the Light Bearers of Jesus | Matthew 5:14

The Christian life should be as refreshing as a warm ray of sunshine. Let's be more than just "christians," let's be the Light Bearers of Jesus! I am passionate about this idea of being the light of the world. The One Verse Devotional is a part of my blog, the Phosphorus Project. Phosphorus means "bringer of light" or "light bearer." Phosphorus is the element that is in a head of a match that makes it spark. So, yes, this is an important one to me. In our culture, the word Christian carries a lot of emotional baggage. There are a lot of terms associated with Christian that are, well, less than flattering. Today, the word Christian has become very confused. Christian movies, christian music, the christian phone book! I feel we have lost something from the original meaning. There is something about a fresh ray of sunshine or turning on the light in the morning (and helping  you not stub your town on toys left from your kids the night before!) Light is amazing. And that is exactly what I think of my faith. Let us spread the Light and Love of Jesus to a dark world! About One Verse One Verse is a short, daily devotional designed to help you grow closer to God through less than 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Consistency trumps intensity. When it comes to working out, eating healthy, or managing our finances, consistency always trumps intensity. We reach our major life goals through small, purposeful steps taken daily. The same is true in our spiritual lives. I truly believe you will grow closer to God by spending just 5 minutes a day with Him versus cramming in an hour once a month. The One Verse Devotional is here to help take away the barriers of spending time with God. Now, during your workout, drive to work, or even shopping for groceries, you can invest in your spiritual life.   http://phosphorusproject.com/
