Shining a light


Red Candle, originally uploaded by King Kieran.

It's only 38 days until I get married and just been thinking about the wedding ceremony.

Had not really thought how hard it may be for people that I love that do not know God to come along and hear about our commitment to each other and God?

I want to be a shining light for those around me, I want to be salt and light to their lives, but how do I do this?? I am just an ordinary man and not a very good one at that! But I do love God.

I was encouraged the other day when I was reading Psalm 42 - it talks about even though we might be lacking in faith and life might be hard God is still good and God is still our saviour! That really encouraged me. If David could write that after all the troubles he faced then I am sure that i can make it.

As the deer pants for water, I want to be a shining light for all those around me.
