God loves to see you smile so put down those things that would keep you disconnected from your joy! You have beauty so deeply rooted in you that it comes out even when you don’t know it. Beauty is not something that can be looked upon, true beauty radiates from within you and can be felt by those that you touch with your words and your smile. Remember that you don’t have to see your beauty in order for others to see what is beautiful inside of you!
Good day to you all! I am praying for peace today. We are all searching for peace in our lives and I am praying for a spirit of peace to fall all around you today!
Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. Isaiah 60:1
I believe that we all have something to give. I believe that we all have a light that shines within us, but people and situations often cause us to put our light away. Often times we believe what people, who don’t even know us very well, say about us. Especially if it is something negative. God has told us over and over again in His word what we are and who we are, yet if your co-worker or family member gives their opinion, it is in our nature to take what they have said to heart. This is a learned behavior and we have all at one point or another fallen for this trick. I want to encourage you today to never let anyone tell you that your outside self is more important than your inside self, because what is on the outside shall pass away and what is on the inside is eternal. What is on the outside needs our maintenance, but what is on the inside is maintained by God. When people look at you and your situation and judge who you are based on that, let not your heart be troubled. Keep believing, and keep praying because God is looking at your beautiful spirit. You shall be blessed.
In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16
Dear Reader imagine if your dark sky’s could be bright. If only for one night imagine if everything that was keeping your path from being shown to you was gone. The veil of darkness that has kept you from success was lifted. It would be so nice, if only for one night. Be encouraged Dear Reader because the funny thing about light is that when it shines it is brightest at the source. When you shine you are not just lifting someone else up, you are making it possible for yourself to be uplifted. When you are reaching out to someone else you are making it possible for someone to reach you. When you love someone you are making it possible for someone to love you. The light is brightest at its source so when you shed some light to show someone else the path to success, you are opening up a lighting your own path to success. I want you to let go of what other people have said about you. I want you to let go of the negative opinions that you have formed about yourself. You are important in God’s plan, Dear Reader. Someone needs you right now to shine for them, if only for one night. You are beautiful, and there is nothing that anyone can do about it. Keep that with you today and always. I know it may seem hard to do on a regular basis, but shine Dear Reader, if only for one night.
You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
John Reed
