"Who is the light of the world except God's child? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about ourselves. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of arrogance, or of self-deception. It does not describe the self concept we have made. It does not refer to any of the characteristics with which we have endowed our idols. It refers to us as we were created by God. It simply states the truth.
To the ego this idea is the epitome of self-glorification. The ego does not understand humility, mistaking it for self-debasement. Humility consists of accepting our role in salvation and in taking no other. It is not humility to insist we cannot be the light of the world if that is the function God assigned to us. It is only arrogance that would assert this function cannot be for us, and arrogance is always of the ego.
True humility requires that we accept this idea because it is God's Voice Which tells us it is true. This is a beginning step in accepting our real function on earth. It is a giant stride toward taking our rightful place in salvation. It is a positive assertion of our right to be saved, and an acknowledgement of the power that is given us to save others."
