Building on the exhortations that Paul gives and the example of Christ outlined in the beginning of Philippians chapter 2, we continue with Paul’s call to work out our salvation as Christ works in us, to shine like stars in the sky, and to rejoice together in all that God is doing.
When we live out our salvation and have the same attitude as Christ we shine Christ’s light into the world. As Christians, we are lights, but how brightly do we shine and how noticeable is our sparkle? When we follow the example of Christ and live out our faith, Jesus’s light is going to shine out of us and illuminate dark places, reflect Jesus’ joy, and invite people towards Christ.
