Let It Shine

[quietbloke]

What a classic christian song this is. How we thank God for Graham Kendrick and songwriters like him. Songs like these are surely born of the Spirit!

'Lord,we have seen the rising sun awakening the early dawn and we're rising up to give you praise. Lord we have seen so we rise up with a song and we rise up with a cry and we're giving You our lives. We will shine like stars in the universe,holding out Your truth in the darkest place. We'll be living for your glory,Jesus we'll be living for Your glory. Lord we have seen. We will burn as the sun,so radiantly sending light for all to see,let your holy light arise..'(Matt Redman)

Amen!

15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; —Philippians 2:15 (KJV)

Amen!

I'd love to think of us as lights to the world, and not be in shame instead. to be a sparkly light..to be something beautiful and lovely to god ....brings tears to the eyes, to imagine that I could be a light esp when I've been drawn to the darkness and sweet peace of night through goth...

I've felt a failure and a shame, so downcast.....

do you remember the image of the man crawling to the cross, where he then is able to slowly stand upright?

IDK if I can stand upright yet, but my friends, I'm on my knees and at least I can crawl.

 

[teresa]

ps-who has that image, and anyone able to find one with a woman instead?

'Unapproachable light,so bright it is frightening,holiness shining,just glimpses we see today,but in heaven we'll see Your face,where no heart will deny the beauty of Christ seated on high and all tongues will proclaim Your worth and Your fame for eternity to reign,there will only be one name' (David Gate)

'You're the purest of lights,cant see without dying,there is no hiding. Just glimpses we see today,but in heaven we'll see Your face,where no heart will deny the beauty of Christ,seated on high and all tongues will proclaim Your worth and Your fame,for eternity to reign,there will only be one name' (David Gate)

His radiant light continually fills our lives with His grace!

I love this song, because he lives I can face tomorrow...
we can face tomorrow because he lives...

God's light can shine through nature,through that daffodil and robin and other beautiful products of His creation

 

[quietbloke]

Jesus just shines through us when we remain in Him and He in us!

 

[quietbloke]

Lord, make us instruments of your peace, shining your light brightly into the world
