Be the Light in the Darkness

Recently it’s been beautifully overwhelming to see love flow towards others in need. From the hurricanes to local events, there are people going through really hard times. Yet the light and love that shines towards the darkness is powerful, and transformative.

It’s so interesting to see in these trying times so many of the barriers that divide us are laid down and we see one another as the human beings we are. Judgements are laid aside and people come together for the common good of others.

I wish it didn’t take these hard times for us to do this. Yet may we see this, and learn from it. Let’s come together to…

pause. breathe. pray.

May we remember every day people are going through hard things, whether it’s visible to the eye or not. May we make a vow to do what we can to be the light of God’s love towards others, not just when tragedy happens, but every day. Yes, praying for others is helpful and may be all we can do at times. Yet may we also pray to be the hands and feet of Christ, loving others through our words and actions, providing for needs we see. We cannot help everyone and do everything, but we can help at least one person and do one thing to bring love their way, and shine light into the darkness of their experience💕🙏🕯️

With love and hope,
