Today, on the longest day of the year (aka the first day of summer), I've been reflecting more on the Light of the World. (Yes, pun was intended...) Each week, we take a nature study walk with homeschooling friends. Just because the school year has ended for us doesn't mean the learning stops. I spoke a lot with my daughter and son today about the differences in time for the seasons - Summer and Winter being the longest and shortest days of the year; Spring and Fall being equal daylight and night-time. One of the young women we walk with each week was discussing with her mother and me about how the sun was shining and there was a double glow around her shadow - one lighter than the other. Then the sun and light brought to mind our family devotions the other evening. We read in Exodus how Moses was hid in the cleft of the rock and was able to glimpse God's glory after He had passed. Moses' face and countenance was forever changed. That's the way we are to be EVERY TIME we encounter God and His Word. We are to be changed and shining His reflected radiance!!!
I feel like I'm rambling; it's around midnight and all these thoughts are jumbling around in my brain. I can't stop my brain from thinking and running around and therefore, I can't sleep. I'm gonna leave you all in blogland and head for my Bible. May I be changed and "glowing" tomorrow morning after feasting on the Word of God.
