Reflection for Tuesday, Mar 18, 2008
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." -- Romans 15:13This verse alone speaks volumes to me. I read a few days ago a writers description of the rainbow. "When we look at a rainbow , we see light reflected in many glorious colors. The magnificence of the rainbow is a visual display of the power and the beauty of light."
Thinking of this statement on my way to work this morning and seeing the sunlight piercing through the clouds reminded me of another kind of light, the Christ light which is always shining within me and those who chose to have Christ in their daily lives. Christ light is always a ray of peace and hope in times of conflict in or lives. Christ light is wisdom in times of indecision, energy and hope in times of physical demand. When we know that we are filled with Christ light or divine light this gives us hope for today and better tomorrows. I know for me this light helps keep my focus positive when situations in my life seem out of control and I don't know which path to take. When I recognize the Christ light within, I am more attuned to the wonders of life, the beauty of my surroundings and appreciative for all that I have and can share with others.
It is beautiful to feel this presence and I am sure when each of you experience Christ's light you are calm, filled with peace, hope and strength and you move through the day with ease and confidence. Therefore as we move through this day, this holy week, let's keep our thoughts focused on the divine light of Christ and we will find that our lives will be abundantly blessed.
