TURN THE POWER ON

I put the Christmas decorations up today.I began to feel in the mood for Christmas,as we put a lovely worship cd on and lit a few candles.It's amazing,though,how dull the tree and garlands look until the power is switched on.What a difference it makes.Suddenly everything dazzles and the whole room lights up.I suppose that's a bit like us really,when we allow God to take full control of our lives.The Holy Spirit is able to dwell within us and turn the power on.It's then and only then that we can be of use as "bright lights" shining in an ever darkening world.I pray tonight that those of us who trust God as Saviour and Lord, may be empowered to reach out this Christmas to those who feel they just want this month to be over.What a blessing it would be to share the best message of all with someone who really just gets it for the first time.

"Let your light so shine before men".Matthew.5.v.16
