Light

Luke 8:16b...."A lamp is placed on a stand, where it's light can be seen by all who enter the house.

So....this is the kind of life I strive to live. One that is a light in a darkened world. Yesterday I was told that several people see me as a "breathe of fresh air" at work. I took that as a pretty good compliment. I strive to be that way everyday. Too many times while I'm at work I see faces of dispair, troubled, no hope and full of emptiness. You know those faces....the ones that are not enjoying life. They just exsist. They don't understand that their exsistance is for something so much more than they have right now. They exsist to bring honor and glory to God and they have no idea. I'm not talking about just the customers that come into the dealership but also the employees. Some of them seem so miserable. So....without their knowledge I walk around as I see them this way and pray silently, while working, for each one. I know that right now that's all I'm capable of doing and just to be that "breathe of fresh air" until God presents a time when I can speak to them. I try to load myself up every morning with God's word and pray earnestly before I head out to be a light. I usually end up so excited to go that I'm sure I go in with this strange look on my face and my co-workers are probably like....."how can someone be so happy/smiling all the time??" "She is so weird." But, aren't we called to be a peculiar people?? Then they would say to that...."is that what you call it??" LOL

So anyway I hope I haven't rambled to much for ya....
