Let It Shine

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...

"God is light.  In Him there is no darkness at all."  1 John 1:5

Is there someone in your world

that needs a little light to see today?

Kind words and actions

are like crystals on a chandelier.

They reflect the source and

multiply it.

Go light your world...

or maybe better,

reflect His light to others.

Okay - don't crack up - but my husband and I sing this song every morning. A great reminder of our purpose - Let His light shine in us!
You have a super blog and I appreciate you following All Things Refined!
