“Even so let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭ASV‬‬

Today’s Rethink Church Photo-A-Day word is works. The definition of work is an activity involving mental or physical effort done in order to achieve a purpose or result. In our key verse, we are instructed to let our light shine through our good works. More importantly, it says we are to glorify God. Now take a look at Ray’s photo. This is his view of a Sunday morning service being live streamed from Pawleys Island Community Church. What do you see? I see cameras and monitors pointed toward worship.

Often you will read or hear us text or say; SDG. This means Soli Deo Gloria, to give God glory alone. Each time we complement our works, we recite SDG. Why do we do this? It keeps us focused on God and keeps us humble. Take a look at your week ahead and think of how you can make your work pleasing to Him. I leave us today with a blessing. I pray this benediction from Hebrews 13: 20-21 NIV over all of us.

Now go and may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip us all with everything good for doing His will, and may He work in us what is pleasing to Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. In Jesus’ Name we pray, Amen.
