Let your light shine ?

I've been studying a bit recently on the Lord's directive to be His witness which is most clearly written out in what we refer to as the "Great Commission" of Matthew 28:19-20.  A statement by David Watson says "Our lives should be so ministry-filled that people see what we do and give God glory"

I have realized a more tangible reality from the sermon on the Mount where Jesus said,”You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 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. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:14-16).

As a Christian (little Christ) I must be obvious, conspicuous, noticeable, prominent, and readily seen in this world we live.
