Day One - Introduction

"This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine,
Let it shine,
Let it shine."


As a kid in Sunday School, I often sung this tune with memorable hand gestures surrounded by other kids shouting an dancing as we praised the Lord. At that time, it was a fun song to sing and move to, but what does that last line really mean, "Let it shine?"

That is what this blog is all about - letting your light shine before all - every man, woman, boy and girl. Christian, non-christian, athiest, mormon, catholic, diest, muslim, jew, non-religious, satanic, wiken, you-name-it - the point is to shine.

In the next few months, I plan to explore through various means and people what shining the light of Christ in every day life is all about. As a wife, my husband is the greatest example of shining light in this world. I plan to share his experiences quite often, with his permission of course! And as a youth leader of high school girls, I plan to share their experiences as they struggle to shine as Christians in a media saturated teen environment. And as a young woman of God, I wil share my thoughts, struggles, and experiences while I try my best to "Let it shine."
