Shine

Isn't is neat when you start concentrating on an area of your life and suddenly everything screams the same message? God is amazing that way! I was over catching up at Beth Moore's blog this morning and read her commissioning to the women she spoke to in Albuquerque. How's this for relevant?

"'Dearly loved one, You’ve been called by God to shine like a star in a dark, depraved world. Don’t blend in. Refuse the daily temptation to be absorbed in yourself. Take interest in others. Deliberately humble yourself and live the life of a servant. As you live in the crisis of “continue to” keep working out what God is working in. Watch your mouth. Choose words of life. And one glorious day, you will see the face of Christ and He will show you every good purpose He fulfilled through you. And there will be delight. Even if you are despised or ignored, you are Christ’s star. Go forth and shine. " Beth Moore

This is so beautiful, Jen. I needed to read that this morning. I've found that in my walk with Jesus lately, too. He just keeps pointing me in the same direction over and over, even with the verses of His Word that He brings across my path.

Glad to be walking this path with one such as yourself : )
