As much as the ego tries to dim or shut it off, the light in you can never be extinguished. This light exists in everything God created, and God created All. A flower extends this light to you through its beauty and fragrance. The ocean shares this light with you when it massages your body with its waves. The grass gifts you this light by softening the path that you walk on. Your enemy offers you this light by giving you the opportunity to forgive him. The beggar on the street brings you the opportunity to feel this light by giving you the chance to be compassionate. The person in the other car offers this light by letting you show him patience. The light is not just “up there,” unreachable and separate from you. The light is within you now, and always one with you, because you are this light.
Today, let us become aware of when we are shining our light and when we are blocking our light. We shine our light when we are aligned with and sharing our loving nature, such as when we are being compassionate, forgiving, peaceful and joyful. Some of the ways that we block our light are when we are angry, resentful, anxious and judging self or others. When you find yourself blocking your own light, do not get frustrated. Simply become aware of what you are doing. Then recall that you are not the ego’s delusions, you are the light. Forgive yourself and others for any misperceptions. Now, aligned with the light, make a conscious choice. When others treat you in a manner that is not in alignment with the light, be compassionate, and by doing so become an example of the truth, of the light in all of us.
All glory to God.
Peace, Health, Happiness, Love, Laughter, and Light.
