Proverbs 4:18 ERV;  The path of those who live right is like the early morning light. It gets brighter and brighter until the full light of day.

There was an old song my mom used to sing called, Everyday With Jesus. It goes like this; Everyday with Jesus, gets sweeter then the day before. Everyday with Jesus, I love him more and more. Jesus saves and keeps me, yes He’s the one I’m waiting for. Everyday with Jesus, is sweeter then the day before.

I hope I didn’t slaughter that too badly! But that’s the song that came to my mind when I read that the path of those who live right is like the early morning light. It gets brighter and brighter until the full light of day. There’s something to be said about the aging process, because the older I get, the lighter I get. I don’t carry what I used to carry! I’ve learned that His yoke is indeed easy and his burden is very light.

Jesus said that I was to let my light shine, not so that I look good, but that HE looks good. Nothing I do in and of myself has any lasting value, but in HIM, everything I do unto Him becomes frosted with goodness. I could be just a plain cupcake, but God lavished me with rich, gooey topping that makes HIM look good. The more time I spend in His presence, the more beautiful I become. Some of us REALLY need to spend more time with God! Just sayin!

Father, “You are beautiful beyond description, too marvelous for words. Too wonderful for comprehension, like nothing ever seen or heard. Who can grasp your infinite wisdom! Who can fathom the depths of your love. You are beautiful beyond description, Majesty enthroned above. And I stand, I stand in awe of you. I stand, I stand in awe of you. Holy God to whom all praise is due, I stand in awe of you.” The song in my heart echos that of the beautiful worship song from long ago, but it’s so true, my Lord. I am in awe of you and your goodness to me. You are the light of my life and the length of my days. This day, may you be glorified in me. May you brightly shine through me, like a high beam piercing the darkness of the night. It’s in Jesus’ name I pray. Amen
