Our new President will likely appoint many new ambassadors. Their job will be to represent the United States wherever they are assigned. They must accurately reflect the interests of our country.
Have you ever thought about the fact that we are each ambassadors. We represent different people and organizations in our various circumstances and environments. On the job we represent the company in our interactions with clients, the public and even other employees. In social situations we represent our families as well as ourselves. At other times we may be ambassadors for our schools, churches and charitable organizations.
The highest ambassadorial calling we can have is to represent God, the King of kings. He is light, so the best way to represent him is by letting our light shine through the good works we do through him. Matthew 5:16 says, “In the same way let your light shine before others so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.”
