We have a duty in life. To share our kindness, share our love, and carry our candle into the darkness. Today at church we sang Go Light your World (originally by Kathy Trocoli and covered by Chris Rice).
\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/WsM5lt9tCFo<\/a><\/p>\n

I say carry your candle. Light the world, you can help.
\n“Frustrated brother, see how he’s tried to
\nLight his own candle some other way
\nSee now your sister, she’s been robbed and lied to
\nStill hold a candle without a flame”
\n———-
\nYour word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.
\nPsalm 119:105<\/a> NIV<\/p>\n

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
\nJohn 1:5<\/a> NIV
\n———-
\nThe light in the darkness is and has always been there. Sometimes he needs someone to help us seem him. Can you be that light in the darkness for someone?<\/p>\n
