Shine
“This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.”
- 1 John 1:5-7 ESV

Shine
In this day and time…
Shine
In the midst of darkness…
Shine
Charlie Peacock, in his song “In The Light” (later made famous by DC Talk), says this:
“I want to be in the Light as He is in the Light. I want to shine like the stars in the heavens. O Lord, be my Light and be my Salvation. All I want is to be in the Light.”
A great prayer for you and me...
Shine ~ Be in the Light as He is in the Light
Shine ~ Like a city on a hill
Shine ~ Like an uncovered lamp
Shine ~ Like the stars in the heavens
Shine ~ Live out loud… on purpose… for Him
Shine ~ So the world can see Jesus in you (and me)
Shine ~ “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
- Matthew 5:14-16 ESV
Live what you say you believe… and shine
“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
~ John 1:5
