What light illuminates your soul today? Maybe you woke up feeling fresh and rested and ready for a beautiful day. Maybe you did not. When your eyes look out into the world ~ these windows into your soul ~ what are they looking for? What are they seeing?
Today the rain is pouring again. I am sick. My family got such a horrid flue on the 28th of December and even though I didn't get it as strongly as some of them I can't shake the sickness. It lingers. I will recover but I am in a different head space than I sometimes am.
Today the light came in the form of my two year old. She had a cold for weeks and then the flue. She finally recovered and it was alarming how quickly I had forgotten her sunny personality. This morning as she got ready for church she was singing fragments of songs her sister has taught her. She was asking for a pony tail in her hair. She was commenting on her beauty and getting on her shoes and asking everyone to make sure she was totally ready. She was shining with confidence and inner light. It was radiant.
May you find light to illuminate your soul today. Maybe you have a pet? A bird that is singing or a cat that snuggles you or a dog with soulful eyes? Maybe you have a grandchild with a sweet heart who loves you fully. Maybe you had a partner who made you a cup of tea or coffee or did something thoughtful for you. Maybe you have flowers in your yard you could bring indoors or maybe you have a Christmas gift that is continuing to bless you with its thoughtfulness. Maybe there will be a memory that is full of light and joy that comes into your mind today. Maybe you could put on some lipstick or spend time somewhere beautiful?
May you find the light
