I have been thinking a lot about light houses lately. I guess God is laying something on my heart. There have been little glimpses of His teaching in my life on this topic and then today my devo said this,
"I chose to pour My Light into you, so that you can be a beacon to others."
So, a lighthouse...
a tower or building designed to emit light as an aid to navigation for ships and boats.
The light coming from the light house would alert the ships of where the coast line was, and illuminate the waters.
It has me thinking...
Am I a lighthouse?
Am I a beacon of light to those wondering in the hazards of this life?
Do people see me, see light, and understand a clear path?
A path of Christ?
I should be...
"In the same way, let your light shine before men..."
Matthew 5:16
So, I did a quick little search on lighthouses...you know in the place I wouldn't let my college students search for information: WIKIPEDIA:
"Once widely used, the number of operational lighthouses has declined due to the expense of maintenance and replacement by modern electronic navigational devices."
Hmmm....the number of operational lighthouses had declined...
Could we make a connection to Christianity here my dear sisters?
...due to expense and maintenance...
It is difficult to be a lighthouse for our Lord if we are not spending time with Him.
If we are not maintaining our own relationship with Him.
LIGHTHOUSE....
Be one today....
