The Thing About Light

When it’s dark and someone turns on a light, you can’t help but find it. I mean, your eyes, they go right to it.

And in the day time, when it’s bright outside and the light shines onto what would be transparent, the flat surface acts like a mirror. The light shows itself off on the see-through surface.

I want to be a surface like that. The kind that shows off the Light in all of His glory.

By how I live.

How I love my husband. My kids. And strangers on the bus.

By what I say. And how I say it.

What I write and how I deal with success. And failure.

I want my life to show off Who God is.

So that when people look at me, they see Him instead.
