Big Shine

Venus is often referred to as "the morning star." After the sun and the moon, Venus is usually the brightest light in the sky. Unfortunately for some who are not earlier-risers, we just have to hear about it!

 

Christ refers to Himself as the "Bright and Morning Star" in Revelation 22:16 and the "Light of the World" in  John 8:12.  Is there any question, therefore, that light is important to God. Have you noticed that  darkness NEVER overtakes light?  Light ALWAYS wins, illuminating and chasing away the dark. Is it any wonder Christ calls us to be little-lights of Himself --  causing a Big 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).  It's as profound and as simple as this: This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine!  This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine - let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!
