Reflection Luke 11v33-36 A Poem
/
"Your eye is the lamp of the body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is also full of light."Oh this big light of mine-SHINE! SHINE! SHINE!
Classical music playing on low,
Reading the Bible by an open window.
Sounds of summer blending in with the violin
Children playing, laughing, last days of school ease
A candle flickering, I see the light and begin to read.
No one lights a lamp and puts it in the cellar
Under a basket—no
Oh This little light of mine, how do I let it shine
When windows shut
When music stops
When laughter is cut short by cry of pain
When darkness runs wild around me determined to extinguish the flame
My eyes shut tight—no light
My eyes wide open—fixed on Him
Now illuminated by His mercy and grace
His light shines and fans my faith
Oh this big light of mine-SHINE!
