Ye are the light of the world

     In my email every morning, I receive an email that gives me a new Hungarian word to learn every day. I am given three possible English meanings for the Hungarian word given and then I give it my best guess before scrolling down to see the correct translation. Today the word was világos, meaning bright, but as I browsed over the three possible meanings, I was surprised to see how beautifully all three of them went together even though the author probably didn't see the connection him or herself. But as I read the words, a Bible passage came to mind:

     "14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." Matthew 5:14-16

     In the Hungarian Bible, "világosság" is the word used for light. So the connection between these three words was perfect! I pray that my (a.) candle will be (b.) bright in the (c.) world!
