Inner Light

"And God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light."

— Genesis 1:3

Creator of light,

Light is essential to life. It reveals forms, colors; it makes life visible and possible. But there is also an inner light that guides my steps.

Thank You for light. For the sun that illuminates and warms, for this brightness that chases away darkness, for the beauty it reveals. Thank You also for the inner light that lights my path.

May I myself be a bearer of light. Illuminate others' paths, reveal hidden beauty, bring clarity in confusion. Be my light and my truth.

Amen.

Reflection

What light can you bring into someone's life today? A smile, a word of encouragement, a presence?

For all those who live in darkness and seek the light.
