Saying / ProverbAnalogy★★★★
It is a great deal better to live a holy life than to talk about it. We are told to let our light shine. If it does, we need not exert ourselves to inform others. The light will be its own witness. Light-houses do not ring bells, or fire cannons, to call attention to their shining—they simply shine.
The point
True religiosity is demonstrated through authentic living rather than proclamation; genuine witness requires no announcement—it shines by its nature like a lighthouse.
