Let your light shine

Does my light shine for you Lord? Will you turn to me and say the words I long to hear from you alone..."Well done,my good and faithful servant".

You created light, yet the darkness refused to recieve you
You sent your SON as our saving light, the darkness still refuses to recieve it.


I sit here with "this little light of mine", a song I learned in my youth, running over and over again in my head, yet my light seems so dim.

Father what must I separate myself from that I may shine bright for you...which possessions dim my heart? which activities cause the light to faulter? Which people seem to drain your me to where I no longer burn brightly for you? Guide me Father, show me, teach me. Cause me to have a willing heart...

You have taught me that we are light in you, and I must walk as a child of the light. I have even gone as far as painted that verse on my wall that I should not forget. You have taught me not to "have fellowship with unfruitful works of darkness" for each time we dabble with these, our light becomes dim.

This world is turning farther and farther away from you Lord, more and more lost souls. Your Son's works dealt with the flesh, yet pointed to the soul and all brought glory to YOU. When He healed the sick, they still eventually died, but they all pointed to YOU. May I be like Jesus and point to YOU.

I pray the works I do,will guide others to you, I pray the words I do will be an encouragement to other believers, but mostly, I pray that any works I do will bring Glory to YOU and YOU alone.
