Mark 4:21-22 ESV
And he said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a basket, or under a bed, and not on a stand? For nothing is hidden except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret except to come to light.
In Mark 4:21–22, Jesus reminds us that light is meant to be seen, not hidden. God’s truth, once received, is not intended to remain private or concealed, but to be lived out and revealed through our words and actions. As we begin a new work week, this passage invites us to consider how the light of Christ shines through our daily responsibilities, decisions, and relationships. Even in ordinary tasks and unseen moments, God is at work making His purposes known. We are called to live with integrity and faithfulness, trusting that what is done in obedience will, in time, be brought into the light for His glory.
