“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16

I have been thinking about the darkness that surrounds heinous crimes, such as imprisoning women and children in the sex trafficking business. What is life in this world if there is no hope of escaping darkness? The Lord brings light to the darkest of places and hope to the hopeless. May we glorify the Lord and not hide His light from those who need it the most.
