light

“People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.”
Elizabeth Kubler Ross

I love this quote. Isn't it true? How many of us find it easy to shine when all is going well? But, when the tough times of life close in and it feels dark all around, do we still shine...or does the light go out? I think that depends on what your source of light is.

Consider some times in the recent past when life has been tough. Do you think others have been able to see The Light shining in and through you?

Grace and peace,
Deb

This post makes me think alot, Deb.
Quote makes me think of an old Keith Green song.
Sad when the light goes out for people in hard times, Deb.
Also sad when people see His light coming from a person but refuse to recognize Him as the source of the light, preferring to think the specialness is human.
God bless you Deb : )
