Gospel
Luke 8:16-18
Anyone who has will be given more
Jesus said to the crowds:
‘No one lights a lamp to cover it with a bowl or to put it under a bed. No, he puts it on a lamp-stand so that people may see the light when they come in. For nothing is hidden but it will be made clear, nothing secret but it will be known and brought to light. So take care how you hear; for anyone who has will be given more; from anyone who has not, even what he thinks he has will be taken away.’
Reflection
Why do we need light in the dark? We need light so we can see. Everything is out in the open. When Christ gave this teaching two important message is shared. Firstly it is about living a transparent life. Only evil live in darkness. Secondly we must know our Lord more and more. If our knowledge is less we will drown when face with challenges. Are you walking in the light?
Let us pray
Lord Jesus you brought light when you came to this world. May we walk in the light with you always.
Amen
