One of my main prayers lately is that I can be a light for God; that I can radiate his love through me. I want people to look at me and know that I have something different. I want them to want what I have. I want them to feel God's love through me.
What do you radiate? Is it the love of God? Or is it something else? Sometimes we wear our emotions right on our faces, or sometimes we don't, and we can look completely numb to the world. Can people feel your love when you see them? Or do they see a broken person?
To demonstrate how God has impacted you is one of the best ways to minister to the lost. When you're walking down the street, what do you see in the faces of other people? In most places, people avert their eyes, stare at the ground, and have blank expressions in order to guard their innermost thoughts.
Why hide the amazing gift God has given you? Let everyone you come into contact with see your light. People will want what you have: joy and peace.
I know we all have issues going on in our lives. It's so hard to radiate joy when you're in pain. But delight in the Lord constantly, remembering how HE DIED so YOU can LIVE! There's so much more to life than your everyday problems, and He can heal any wound.
Shine the light He's given to you, and let others see it.
"In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16
Blindin'!
