Bible verse for February 5
This is today’s verse. Open Today for your week and today’s quiz.
You are the light of the world. A city that sits on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 People do not light a lamp and then set it under a measuring basket, but on the lampstand, where it shines for everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, your light must shine before people, so that they will see the good things you do and give glory to your Father in heaven.

Where could your light be seen this week?
Read it in contextMatthew 5:11–19
11 Blessed are you when people heap insults on you and persecute you and lie about you, charging you with every kind of evil because of me. 12 Be glad and celebrate, since your reward in heaven is great. After all, they persecuted the prophets who lived before you in the very same way. 13 You are the salt of the earth. But if salt goes flat, what will make it salty again? It is no longer fit for anything except to be tossed out and walked on by people. 14 You are the light of the world. A city that sits on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 People do not light a lamp and then set it under a measuring basket, but on the lampstand, where it shines for everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, your light must shine before people, so that they will see the good things you do and give glory to your Father in heaven. 17 Do not suppose that I came to tear down the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to tear them down, but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one tiny letter or one small stroke of a letter will in any way pass from the law until everything has happened. 19 So anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches people to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But anyone who keeps them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
