Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ "People who shine from within don't need the spotlight." Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
Have you ever encountered someone who just brightens your whole world? They have "something" about them that exudes out from within. Doesn't it make you desire what it is they have? You feel this glowing sunshine of sorts.
Jesus tells us to let our light shine! How can we go about being such a person? Well, to begin with we need to realize that our focus is not "ME" but "HE". Jesus should be the "light" coming from within. To grasp that light, we need to be in constant communication with Him...talking to Him as we go about our daily lives...just as we breathe...we should commune with Him....telling Him anything and everything.
We also need to read His "letters" to us....the Bible. Or find some devotional book that will get you into the Bible. I really like, "Jesus Calling" by Sarah Young. She writes as if Jesus were talking right to me! She then gives Bible verses to coincide.
Learn to love yourself as Jesus sees you and loves you! The way to do this is to talk to Him and read the Bible and be in friendships with those who have a relationship with Jesus.
Love other people sincerely...as Jesus loves people. Learn the "art" of listening! People need compassion...listeners...sincerity.
Be genuine. If you are talking to Jesus continually, reading the Bible, loving yourself as Jesus loves you, and loving other people as Jesus would love them...then...people need to see your genuine heart. Be transparent...real!
God bless and keep you strong in Him! Shine...from within...Him within you!
