     As the Body of Christ, we are called to be the light in this dark world. The problem is that many of us who are saved want
to be liked by those living in darkness. Don’t you know that you cannot be liked by everyone? Don’t you know that light causes
darkness to flee? We, who are in Christ, will always cause a commotion in this wicked world! Just look at Christ and His disciples.
They turned this world upside-down! The world has not gotten over this commotion leading the world to God and His light.
The world hates Christ and the world hates His disciples. We are His disciples. The world is lost in its sins and hates us. Do
you get it now? That is why we, the Church, cannot be worried about being liked by the world and its darkness. We must be
the holy witnesses to bring the world to Christ. To do this, we must focus on Christ, the true cornerstone and make sure that
we are aligned with Him in all things. Then we can be the holy temples in which the Holy Spirit dwells.
