Matthew 5:14-16

Listen to Matthew 5:14-16
14 1“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
15 2Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.
16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so 3that[a] they may see your good works and 4give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
