Tomorrow is Sunday...My favorite day of the week. I always look forward to seeing the visitors and the many homeless people who come to our church. Every week, without fail it seems, there is a new face. A new person who is looking for the light. The World has left them is such darkness and they are desperately groping for a light-any light. We need to be outside of ourselves enough to shine one. Outside of our own attitudes, our own agendas, whatever it is that might snuff out our light. Why hold back the light that is is in us? I don't want to fail someone who is walking in the dark.
They need to see my light.
Lord, Let me always hold it high.
I recently came across this quote and it really spoke to me.
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
~Marianne Williamson
