Christ says to His sons and daughters, “Ye are the light of the world.” Matthew 5:14. But who gave you light? You did not have it in you naturally. God is the source of light; the truth has shone into our hearts, to be reflected to others. True love to God will produce love to man. This is what we need—love that is patient, self-sacrificing, persevering, intelligent, practical. (RC 269.5) MC VC
