Light Reflection-Matthew 13:43 The Righteous

June 8th, 2023

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Matthew 13:43.

Jesus said, “Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let him hear.”

Jesus was explaining what would happen at the end of the age. There will be weeds that are pulled up and burned in the fire. The Son of Man will send out his angels and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father.”

Having the righteousness of Christ is key to a bright future in God’s Kingdom. This is how we can be clothed with His righteousness. Romans 1:17 says, “the righteous will live by faith.”

This Light Reflection inspires us to trust in Jesus and live for His glory in the Year to Shine.
