"Let
your Light so shine ...." the Master Mind Jesus instructed us.
"Do not hide your Light under a bushel..." He admonished.
What the Great Metaphysician was telling us is that we are here to
"magnify God" .... to demonstrate our faith in the Great
Infinite Unseen Presence and Power of the Almighty. The Rebel
Jesus went on to say ..."I of mine own-self can do nothing."
The Light that we are to "let" Shine is the Light of God ....
Shining through us!
So many of us walk around hiding in
our small-ness so that we won't shake anybody up .... or have people
think we have a big ego .... but Dr. Holmes the Great Founder of
Religious Science tells us.... "either you are believing that It Is
or you are believing that It Is not ..." Either we believe that we
are expressing the Life of God or we are believing something else.
But the something else is truly not believable .. God Is Life .... Life
Lives ... Life Lives As Me .... check it out again.... "I of mine
own-self can do nothing...." It is Life living me ... the
Light of God Shining through me ... this Light keeps my heart beating
.... keeps me breathing even when I am asleep and opens my eyes each
morning by animating my body into activity.
In
Religious Science we know that God is the Spirit within each of us.
Dr. Holmes understood this clearly for He understood what Jesus meant
when He said. "Let your Light so Shine." The Master
Mind Jesus knew that each and every one of us already has this Light
within us ... but it is up to us to "let it shine!" He
didn't say... IF - YOU HAVE THIS LIGHT, LET IT SHINE ... He said,
"LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE."
WE "HAVE" IT .... LET'S "USE" IT .... LET'S NOT HIDE
IT ANYMORE .... not even for one more second! NOW IS THE TIME ....
LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE ..... Let It Shine on those who need your
Compassion .... Let It Shine on those who need your Love ..... Let It
Shine on those who need your understanding .... Let It Shine in your
work .... Let It Shine in your marriages and your relationships .... Let
It Shine in your family affairs ... Let It Shine in your Health
... Let It Shine in your Finances ... Let It Shine in your Dreams and
Aspirations ...
SEE YOURSELF AS THE
LIGHT OF THE WORLD!! KNOW THAT THIS LIGHT IS GOD SHINING THROUGH
YOU!! SHINE ... SHINE .... SHINE ... UNTIL YOU CAN'T STOP THE
SHINE .....
And
So It Is!
Letting
Love Use Me In Its Own Good Way,
