illuminating

i've dusted off an old fave this week - david crowder's illuminate. i just can't get the song "stars" out of my head and one portion of the lyric in particular:

"and you should hear the angels sing
all gathered round their king
more beautiful than you could dream
i've been quietly listening
you can hear 'em now, i hear em now

and how could such a king
shine His light on me
and make everything beautiful

and i wanna shine
i wanna be light"

as i try to get my bearings in life, this is what it all comes down to. i want to illuminate, or by definition, i want to reflect light.

my prayer is to shine light and shine love.
matthew 5:16

grace and peace,
dana
