I was thinking this morning of the kids song” This little light of mine I’m going to let it shine”. I don’t know if you know it or not but I sang it a lot as a little kid growing up in the church. Remembering back I was so excited that I had the light of Jesus shining in my life and that all that saw me saw that light. I tell you, that today I have been having a hard time letting that light shine. I don’t feel good and it is hard to talk, I didn’t even want to do devotions this morning. My husband had prayer for me and that helped a lot. I still don’t have much of a voice but I feel more like talking to the Lord now. As I sat down to write here, that song started playing in my mind and I remember how it made me feel, I really do want my light to shine for Jesus so that others may see and find him. You know it is like the ships in the sea and how they have to have the lighthouse so they can see where to steer to and keep away from the rocks. We need to have the light of Jesus to follow so we don’t stumble and fall from the goal.
So I am singing this morning “This little light of Mine I’m going to let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine”. I hope you will let the light of Jesus shine in your life so others will see and not fall on the rocks of life.
John 12:35-36
Then Jesus told them, “You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. The man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going. Put your trust in the light while you have it, so that you may become sons of light.” When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.
John 8:12
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
So I am praying for myself and for you that we will be the light of Jesus and be able to let that light shine for Him. Sometimes we are all that a person will see of Jesus, what is shining through our lives and I want my life to shine so all that sees will see and glorify God.
I pray right now Lord for anyone that reads this, if they don’t know you that they will want to meet you. That your light will become a bold shining light like that on the lighthouse that all the ships will see. Jesus make us your light house so your light will shine to the world. I ask this in Jesus name Amen. Thank you for visiting and reading this, May God Bless you and Keep you in the Palm of His hand.
