​CITY OF BLINDING LIGHTS

The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then than I do know
Much learning earns much trouble. The more you know, the more you hurt. Ecclesiastes 1:18 MSG
In the city of blinding lights
Jesus: "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.... Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:14-16 NKJV
Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel luckily
Jesus: "But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." Matthew 5:44-45 NIV
