SHINE

"A holy life will produce the deepest impression. Lighthouses blow no horns; they only shine." 
D.L. Moody


"Why did God make me? To love, serve, and obey HIM. Very simple, yet extremely profound. If we all woke up every morning asking, 'How can I love, serve, and obey God today?' it might change everything-it might even change the world."
Richard Stearns - President of World Vision


I want to ask this each day, because really, I was made for loving, serving and obeying Him and I am happier when I do what I was make to do.  "LORD, help me to hear Your voice today! I want to shine for YOU!!!"

  7. I couldn't agree more! The more I praise him, the more I ask how can I serve him, the happier I am- it is so simple and yet so profound.

    So thankful he allows me to serve him- it is such a joy!

  8. Shonni, what a beautiful post! As always, God's timing is perfect - I needed this today as our family is under severe persecution and trials. I am choosing to focus on Him and His purpose, though my flesh is easily distracted. Thank you for this beautiful reminder!
