Chris.
The Lord God is a sun. This means that He shines! If we belong to Him, then our life will shine for His Glory before other people. The key to this shining is not human effort, the key is that we have a good personal relationship with Him. We should, as True Believers, reflect the Lord's Glory, His Light shining through us.
