The Importance of Being There
I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.—2 John 1:12 (NIV)
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.—2 Corinthians 4:6 (NIV)
THE MORNING SUNRISE transforms the sky replacing the darkness with glorious beauty. The same is true for our lives, when the light of Christ shines on us, we are all transformed–and we recognize that the simple and ordinary can become sacred.
Heavenly Father, shine Your glorious light into my life. Help me stay centered in my commitment to be a positive reflection of Your love.
