Life



Look at life the way it is... the way God gave it to you. The ways He loves.
Give thanks for all His blessings in life today. There are so many other believers in this world who look as if they have so much less then what we have. But maybe, they have more. Not physically, but spitirually. They know their God better because they don't have the temptations and distractions we have. How I long for this kind of life.
A life that doesn't thrive on meaningless toys. A life that could thrive even in the darkest of dungeons, because the Eternal Light is in us. There is more meaning then gaining.... It's giving.
"It is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life...
make me an instrument of Your peace,
I want to know what its like to follow You;
when men look at me,
I want them to see,
the Light of the world inside..."
