SCRIPTURE: Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Matthew 5:14.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To exist in distinction and excellence is to stand out in life or live an outstanding life.

The Scriptures make it abundantly clear that as children of God, we are destined for the top (Matthew 5:14-16, Deuteronomy 32:13, Isaiah 58:14). We were created to exist at the realm of excellence and distinction in whatever we do. Therefore, it is very important to understand excellence or distinction.

Now, the question is, what is distinction? What does it mean to exist in distinction or excellence? 

1. To have excellence or distinction means to stand out in life.

To exist in distinction or excellence means to exist as a 

generational illumination. When you exist in distinction or excellence, there is something about you that lightens your world. Once you step into a place where there is darkness and depression, light appears because you are the light of the world (Matthew 5:14); you are a generational illumination. To exist in excellence or distinction is to exist as the light that gives hope to the people around you.
