Scripture: Matthew 5:14-16
Read the poem Lighthouse, by Kate Deter. After reading the poem, discuss:
- How does this poem relate to the Scripture passage?
- What are some ways you can be like a lighthouse to family and friends this week?
A lighthouse,
Pure, bold, and strong,
A light in the darkness,
A reminder of things hidden,
A beacon to the lost,
A respite to for the weary,
A friend to the ones who have lost hope.
A lighthouse
Is an object, physical,
Real in the shifting fog;
A lighthouse
Is also a metaphor
And its uses stretch out
Like the light it shines forth.
It governs and protects;
It strengthens and it warms;
It does the job it’s meant to do
And remains a light for all.
