love so my proposition to you my love so my proposition to you my proposal to you is that to be distinct I proposal to you is that to be distinct I proposal to you is that to be distinct I believe we can start loving a little bit believe we can start loving a little bit believe we can start loving a little bit better casting down our ego and our better casting down our ego and our better casting down our ego and our pride and possibly seeing individuals as pride and possibly seeing individuals as pride and possibly seeing individuals as made in the image of God and possibly made in the image of God and possibly made in the image of God and possibly hurting and hurting and hurting and confused but God has given you the confused but God has given you the confused but God has given you the ability to represent him wherever you're ability to represent him wherever you're ability to represent him wherever you're at and family lastly when it comes to at and family lastly when it comes to at and family lastly when it comes to light you heard Pastor Jamal say it that light you heard Pastor Jamal say it that light you heard Pastor Jamal say it that Darkness always yields to Darkness always yields to Darkness always yields to light family people are blind with eyes light family people are blind with eyes light family people are blind with eyes and deaf ears and it's only when Jesus and deaf ears and it's only when Jesus and deaf ears and it's only when Jesus appears in demonstrates the true path to appears in demonstrates the true path to appears in demonstrates the true path to God people started following him you see God people started following him you see God people started following him you see the Bible says the God of this age has the Bible says the God of this age has the Bible says the God of this age has blinded the eyes of the people therefore blinded the eyes of the people therefore blinded the eyes of the people therefore Jesus enabled such a enables such blind Jesus enabled such a enables such blind Jesus enabled such a enables such blind mankind to see the truth of life and mankind to see the truth of life and mankind to see the truth of life and salvation through you see there are many salvation through you see there are many salvation through you see there are many yet to see the prevailing darkness in yet to see the prevailing darkness in yet to see the prevailing darkness in their lives and only you can help them their lives and only you can help them their lives and only you can help them out to see and to overcome and it's out to see and to overcome and it's out to see and to overcome and it's because you are a representative of his because you are a representative of his because you are a representative of his light he is the source you're called to light he is the source you're called to light he is the source you're called to be his representative and mirror and be his representative and mirror and be his representative and mirror and Shadow his his love his his light Shadow his his love his his light Shadow his his love his his light everywhere you go you see the thing is

everywhere you go you see the thing is everywhere you go you see the thing is about family see the thing is family is about family see the thing is family is about family see the thing is family is this light this light this light enables sight light does what family speak back sight light does what family speak back to me and then it able site in a couple of me and then it able site in a couple of ways that one thing about light light is ways that one thing about light light is ways that one thing about light light is used as a used as a used as a signal light is used as a what as a I signal light is used as a what as a I signal light is used as a what as a I don't know about you but there are don't know about you but there are don't know about you but there are moments where I kind of sometimes ignore moments where I kind of sometimes ignore moments where I kind of sometimes ignore the warning light on my dashboard of my car but it's therefore a reason to car but it's therefore a reason to signal to me that there's something signal to me that there's something signal to me that there's something wrong light as a signal family light is wrong light as a signal family light is wrong light as a signal family light is also as as a guide we said that light also as as a guide we said that light also as as a guide we said that light enables signal in such a way light enables signal in such a way light enables signal in such a way light enables sight in such a way that it's a enables sight in such a way that it's a enables sight in such a way that it's a signal that it's a guide everybody say signal that it's a guide everybody say signal that it's a guide everybody say guide Psalm 119 vers one Psalm 119 uh guide Psalm 119 vers one Psalm 119 uh guide Psalm 119 vers one Psalm 119 uh verse 105 says this your word is a lamp verse 105 says this your word is a lamp verse 105 says this your word is a lamp to my feet a light for my to my feet a light for my to my feet a light for my path path path signal God but here's the amazing thing signal God but here's the amazing thing signal God but here's the amazing thing too light is used to penetrate the too light is used to penetrate the too light is used to penetrate the darkness by darkness by darkness by exposing evil and exposing evil and exposing evil and error now we do that exposing through

error now we do that exposing through error now we do that exposing through love and love and love and respect and I and I and I dare challenge respect and I and I and I dare challenge respect and I and I and I dare challenge you to start learning the context in you to start learning the context in you to start learning the context in which you are navigating in this culture which you are navigating in this culture which you are navigating in this culture start learning the different religions start learning the different religions start learning the different religions that may be represented by your family that may be represented by your family that may be represented by your family and Friends start learning uh the and Friends start learning uh the and Friends start learning uh the condition of of the people that the condition of of the people that the condition of of the people that the Heartbreak or the triumphs and celebrate Heartbreak or the triumphs and celebrate Heartbreak or the triumphs and celebrate them when they're when it's triumphant them when they're when it's triumphant them when they're when it's triumphant but can You Weep and mourn with them and but can You Weep and mourn with them and but can You Weep and mourn with them and come alongside with somebody when come alongside with somebody when come alongside with somebody when they're they're they're weeping so light does a couple things it weeping so light does a couple things it weeping so light does a couple things it does what it does what it does what it signals it signals it signals it guides and yet it guides and yet it guides and yet it penetrates and so family as I want to encourage I want to encourage you today especially when it comes to being today especially when it comes to being Light number one so how do we maintain Light number one so how do we maintain Light number one so how do we maintain the light that's a good the light that's a good the light that's a good question number one in maintaining light question number one in maintaining light question number one in maintaining light you got to live you got to live you got to live consistently and not consistently and not consistently and not fickle now I may need security after fickle now I may need security after fickle now I may need security after these three things because well family we got to live well family we got to live consistently family consistently family consistently family consistency is firmness of character consistency is firmness of character consistency is firmness of character it's a congruence between your actions it's a congruence between your actions it's a congruence between your actions and your
