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)

Do You Shine?
The people who walked in darkness
have seen a great light. For those
who lived in a land of deep shadows—
light! Sunbursts of light!—Isaiah 9:2 MSG
As the nights grow longer and the time between first
light and sunset lessens, ask yourself: Do I shine? Does
my faith and ability to trust Jesus draw others toward
Him? Is my positive attitude a beacon of His light? If
you answered no, think of this verse, take a moment
and breathe deeply as you imagine God’s light flowing
through you.
Lord Jesus, show me where I can shine more brightly for
You today.
