Why do you speak of God as “Light?” Why do you wish others “love and light?” What is light, but energy—vibrant energy which dispels darkness, revealing Presence. Does not light allow you to see what before you did not realize was there? Does it not bring warmth and comfort? Are these all not qualities of that which you know as God?
When we speak of the “light within,” know that you carry these same qualities of brightness, warmth, and comfort within your very being. That light is always present. It is the very fuel which gives you life. If you feel enveloped in darkness, you need only ask to see the light, to feel the light. Focus then on your heart and ask fervently for the light to be revealed. In the asking, with this heart-felt intention and desire, you are your own fire-starter.
Allow your light to shine forth so that you may serve as a beacon of God’s love to all with whom you deal. Blessings be upon you this day as you shine your light upon the world.
