Luke 11:34

"“No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light."

Key Reflection

This verse emphasizes the importance of making one's faith visible and accessible. Just as a lit lamp should be placed where it can illuminate others, believers are encouraged to live their lives openly so that their light may guide and inspire those around them.
