Have you ever wondered why cities were built on high points like hills? Well, mainly because it's more difficult to attack a fortified city when you have to fight uphill. Plus, you can see further when you are up higher. You can see warning fires that have been lit. You can see when someone is coming. Cities built on a hill or a mountain are rather intimidating, and they cannot hide!
Jesus said that WE are the light
of the world! WE are that city on a hill! We are not to hide our light because we are under
pressure or because we have been threatened by darkness or because we feel threatened by our enemy seeking to attack us.
When the light of truth shines, darkness fears! When you feel the pressure to hide the truth, stand up and let God's light shine through you. God may have put you in such a place where the Light you shine sparks the strength in someone else to stand up and shine too.
