Dear Friends,
Good morning and I pray that your day is filled with blessings.
I am reading a devotional called; "When Coaches Pray" by Charlotte Smith, a former NCAA and WNBA All Star and now coach of the Elon University Women's Basketball Team. A wonderful and encouraging young lady.
Today, she wanted us to focus our attention on the light that we shine. Each of us is a shining example of the glory of God. How we use that light to shine His message to others is our daily calling.
She borrows the famous cinema line Lights, Camera, Action! to remind us that just having our light on, is not enough. Yes, it is important to shine the light daily, but it is equally important to be reminded that we are being watched, each and every move we make. Someone sees our every move.
And Action, of course, are we behaving in His light or are we saying one thing and living another. Each step is being modeled by someone. Is that step a tribute to His honor?
My word of encouragement today is to live every minute in the Light, Camera, Action mode. Shine your light, be aware that how you respond is being modeled by someone else, and are my actions pleasing to God today.
I am encouraged by the love you show each and every person who comes through your doors.
Blessings,
Dave
