<\/a>\u201cShine Jesus Shine\u201d brings light to this dark world. It shares the hope that we receive through Jesus Christ and it shares His truth that brings eternal life.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
There are a couple of phrases that touch me each time I sing them. \u201cSearch me, try, me consume all my darkness\u201d is one. This of course reminds me of the passage in Psalm 139:23, but it\u2019s the last portion that really makes me think.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Perhaps there are some dark areas in my life that need to be enlightened. Okay, I know there are! So yes, Jesus, shine to those areas and brighten up those corners. Take away the darkness. All of it. Consume the darkness! What a prayer!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The other line that catches my attention is \u201cMirrored here may our lives tell Your story.\u201d You\u2019ve probably heard the phrase, \u201cI may be the only sermon someone ever hears.\u201d As a believer of Jesus, if my life doesn\u2019t mirror Him, I could be turning someone away from Jesus by my actions or my words. My life must tell His story.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Apostle Paul teaches us to live as children of light in Ephesians. He also teaches that we are to shine as stars in Philippians. Listen to his words. \u201cDo everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the world of life\u2014in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.\u201d<\/em> (Philippians 2:14-16 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So today I share \u201cShine Jesus Shine\u201d with you. Sing it. Believe it. Live it.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lord the light of Your love is shining <\/p>\n Chorus: <\/p>\n And if you\u2019d like to listen to this wonderful worship song, here\u2019s a link. http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zLkni34o8uM<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I pray that Jesus\u2019 light will touch you in some way today and that you share His light with others.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Donna<\/p>\n
