Carrying The Light

There are some people who carry the light of God to the world. The world is a dark place. All Christians ought to carry this light. For reasons we do not understand, many non-Christians carry the light of God. Christians do not understand or like this mystery for if it was up to most Christians, only Christians would be the ones to carry the Light of God. An example of this mystery is Magic Johnson. Magic Johnson carries the light in a world full of greed, avarice, lust, and selfishness. Magic Johnson is not what you would expect a person who does not publicly profess faith in Christ to be. Magic Johnson, just recently inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, is a giving person. His player statistics show him to be a person who cares more about others than he does about himself. Magic Johnson is a man of courage and compassion. Certainly, in his case and in the case of other people, carrying the light of life or light of God is more a matter of the kind of person you are. When you are a person with the light of God within your inner core, carrying the light is a matter of how you act, and actions are nearly always determined by who you are on the inside.
