Bible Question:
Are there any comments on this daily devotional? WEDNESDAY, May 16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke 8:16-25. Therefore consider carefully how you listen. In this passage from Luke, Jesus tells his disciples to "put the light on the stand, so that those who come in can see the light." The light that Jesus speaks of is the word of God. He wants to make sure that everyone can see it by igniting the light inside each of His disciples. Jesus knows that He will not always be on earth to tell His disciples what to do. He wants them to listen carefully to what he says. Jesus knows that they must hear not only for themselves, but for others. Jesus wants us to be like his disciples and place our light on a stand for everyone to see. He wants us to share the word of God with everyone. He wants us to listen carefully to His teachings so we can share the word of God the way God intended us to share it. How can you place your light on a stand? In what ways can you better listen and understand God's word? How can you help light someone else's fire? When you talk with others, consider what you are saying. Will it help their light shine brighter?
