Have you ever heard the saying that someone is so heavenly minded that they are no earthly good ? Have you ever wondered why Carla does what Carla does ?
At training camp I began thinking on this and how people are so busy looking up that they often forget to look around.
I believe that as long as there are hurting, aching, people on earth that need to experience the love of Christ it is the believers job to share it. I believe it is not only our responsibility but our call to bring Gods Kingdom to the Earth.
Yes, we are promised eternity with our savior but what about now ?
As long as we keep our eyes on our savior and shine his light wherever we can I believe we are one step closer to bringing Heaven to Earth.
Arise, shine for your light has come and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and his glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn. Lift up your eyes and look about you; your sons will come from afar, and your daughters are carried on the arm. Then you will look radiant, your heart will throb and swell with joy; the wealth of the seas will be brought to you, to you the riches of the nations will come. (IS 60 1-5)
This little light of mine I’m gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
