The whole world is a stage;

perform as if there are 7 billion people watching.
   13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
   14 “You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven."
{Matthew 5:13-16}

A thought: When people see you in your actions, what is it that take out of it? Do they see someone worth imitating? Do they see hope and joy? Do they see love? Do they see Jesus?

We must be mindful, dear loves, for our Father wants us to be seen and heard in the world. Are we, right now, prepared to be analyzed by all of our brothers and sisters? Would their perceptions be ones that reflect the glorification of God?

43 “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. 44 Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers."
{Luke 6:43-44}
