SONSHINE
Last night from
the Schooner Alliance!
Good morning to you!
Went to Wellspring United Methodist Church yesterday in Williamsburg, VA. We love to go to other churches when we are out of town. We went to the 8:45 service and then we had the rest of the day to see much. And we praised the Lord, even after we worshiped Him!
Then we went back to the Yorktown Battlefield to see what we did not already see, had a perfect dinner on the water and took a sunset cruise on the Alliance Schooner. Wow, what a day God blessed us with!
It was a beautiful day. The sun shone. Does the Son shine in you? What was really cool was we were walking up to the restaurant to eat dinner and my husband turned around to say something to me. And then he heard his name called. And when he turned around there was the people that he just recently finished painting their new home. They even had an open house for the contractors and their families so I had met them. To me that is a God moment! Now, how great to see someone you know 550 miles from home. I hope the Son shined in me as we greeted these friends.
If the Son, Jesus, doesn't shine in us as Christians, then we need to make a significant change in our lives. We want people to see Jesus in us. If we fuss or complain or whatever we are good at doing, then how are people going to see Jesus in us. That is our ultimate goal!
Matthew 5:15
In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
2 Corinthians 4:6
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.
Philippians 2:14-15
Do all things without grumbling or disputing; so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world,
I will try to be a better light for Christ, how about you?
Have a Son-shiney day!
