Letting our light shine

In the Bible it tells us that Jesus is our light. He is the one we look to for everything we need. He is the brightness, hope, guidance we need in a world darken with the bad things sin has created. The sin of anger, the sin of selfishness, the sin of telling lies, the sin of picking on others, the sin of not doing the things God tells us to do in the Bible.


One of those things the Bible tells us to do is to let our light shine for Jesus. Did you know the moon at night does not have its own light? The light you see from the moon is the light of the sun reflecting off of it. We need to be like the moon and reflect the light of Jesus. We do this by living as Jesus would want us to live.

Let your light shine. Don’t let the darkness of the bad stuff around you put your light out. Like a candle, a wind can come up and blow it out but you need to light it once again and make the choice to continue on.

It’s all in your attitude, its all in your choice to stay positive and look to Jesus for the source of your shine.

About Me

My photo
I reside in Oregon, with my husband of 32 years. I'm a mother of one and grandmother of six, counting my two newly adopted grandsons. I teach a women’s Bible Study. In June of 2007 God asked me to take with me the things I had learned in my own Christian walk to help those traveling down similar roads. A journey that started with a head injury in Jr. High School and the epilepsy it was to create later for 7 long years. One day I was given the key to my cure. In order to have the surgery to cure the 10% of my seizures that were truly epileptic I was told I had to get rid of first the 90% that were stress caused. For the next five years I took my stress issues to the Lord, leaning and relying on Him and His word as well as catchy sayings of others to see me through. As peace, obedience to God and giving up bad habits replaced worry, stubbornness and disobedience my stress seizures began to disappear. Finally I qualified for the surgery. The end result after 20 years has been being seizure free and pill free all those years. Praise the Lord. God is the cure. I can be contacted at karijo_fluffy@yahoo.com.
