LIGHT MY CANDLE

                YOUR CANDLE    

Recently the author hear a beautiful rendition of the song, Light Your Candle. The idea was not new to her but the beauty of it broke open volumes of emotions.  Each one of us have a need to fill the deep emptiness that we feel before we know the Lord.  This emptiness is often filled with things that are not satisfying or healthy for us.  The author found the answer to filling this "cavity" early in life.  The book, I've Always Been Rich, talks about her conversion while listening to a radio broadcast that made a point of asking  the listeners if they knew the Lord and, if not, why are you waiting to open your heart to Him and enjoy the walk with Jesus? She took this took  message seriously and accepted the Lord as her Savior.  That  radio messenger lite my candle so she could go out and light other candles.  Working as a Chaplain is one of the ways she sheds light on those who are unsaved and need their candle lit. Or even sometimes the patients just need a slight breeze on their candle to make the flame a little brighter. The world is in darkness and we as candles are commanded to let our light shine.  A song the author learned as a child was, This Little Light Of Mine, I'm going to let it shine.  So simple but so divine.   Now what do we do with it?  The song mentioned previously goes on to say, Go light the world.  Many people responded to last weeks' blog.  And we even welcomed some from outside of our country. We are excited about their joining us  We all have the same desire to let our light shine.  Matthew 5:15a says, don't hide your light!  Let it shine for all. The light given to us is too good to keep to ourselves.   Share  that light so that the world will come to know our Heavenly Savior. 

 I Promised last week to offer a book bargain, probably it will help with your Christmas gift giving.  The book is offered at $10.00 plus $5.00 shipping and handling per book.   You can certainly contact me and make arrangements directly with me or you can go via pay pal for your order. I think I have that set-up
Christ's love to each and everyone of you as we anticipate the holidays of Thanksgiving for our many blessings and as we once again are transported in mind and heart to the birth of the babe in Bethlehem.
