Shine Bright in 2009

Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle,
and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Author unknown

My New Year's Wish is to:
SHINE BRIGHTLY IN 2009
Not in the sense of being noticed or applauded of men
but to send forth a light of His glorious Truth and wonderful Love

Wishing all a HAPPY NEW YEAR
filled with His Blessings & Care

Karen,

Thanks for sharing that quote. That sure could preach! I love the candles too. Hope you have a very blessed 2009.

I am trying to remember the old religious program that was on the radio, yes that was a l o n g time ago. They ended the program with something like, “don’t curse the darkness, light one candle.”
May others find in me that something that would cause them to light their candle form my life.

Great thought to start the New Year;
Mervi

That is what I am praying for also Aunt Karen, I think if fleshly self will focus more on being a light, a lot of the little things will not be nearly as significant. Happy New Year, Love You Guys!

I love the look of cut glass or crystal with candles.

Happy New Year!!! - "This little light of mine .... let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!"

To All,
Isn't it going to be quite a year when darkness seems to abound that we as God's Own can shine brightly? I want to do my part as I know each of you do too. Happy New Year!
