as I got ready for bed tonight, the realization suddenly dawned on me that I hadn't written anything new recently. it became a problem, because I didn't really know what to write about. so I started thinking. and a song came to my head, along with a Bible verse that is one of my favorites.
"take your candle and go light your world" were the infamous words of our Advent theme song at church, and little did I know, those words would stick with me through the next months, through good times and bad. it would also be accompanied by "you are the light of the world -- like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden" (Matt. 5:14). through a chapel speaker, I learned that the most memorable parts of faith are shared through other people. so, following in Jesus' footsteps, that is what we are called to do. lighting our world by sharing our stories of unwavering faith is what matters most to the people that we'll meet along our various journeys. believe it or not, you'll come out the other side with a new look on life, because that person will have shared something with you too.
