Let Your Light Shine....

With thoughts of church buildings now being closed, the photo below takes on new meaning for me. On the evening of March 8, just days prior to emergencies being declared over issues of public health, I had taken a moment to sit in an empty and quiet sanctuary while there to practice a piece on the piano. The early evening sun illuminating the room was a sight to be seen. (Location: Otterbein UMC, Carlisle)
    And now, being over a week later, a song we had written years ago also comes to mind (shared below).


Shine Your Light 
by Sara & Keevin 7-2005
  
Light the way of our path 
Shine your light on our daily journey 
Shine your light on us Lord 

When the shadows find us
When the thunder roars
When we fall and stumble
Shine your light on us Lord

Shine your light on us Lord 
Light the way of our path 
Shine your light on our daily journey 
Shine your light on us Lord 

Shadows hide the way
Storms clouds moving in
Smoke of life surround us
Lost in doubt and sin.

Shine your light on us Lord 
Light the way of our path 
Shine your light on our daily journey 
Shine your light on us Lord 

Shine your light on us Lord
