I woke up like many of you did, to the awful, horrible news of the massacre in Colorado…it sank my heart. What in the world is going on? What can anyone do to thwart this kind of evil and sickness?
Everyday it seems that one more chunk of the world is getting gobbled up by the darkness. Do you see it too?
Aching to do something, I sent up my prayers this morning for the individuals and families affected by this senseless violence and felt helpless to do more. And then I thought, well maybe there is something I can do, even if it is a small thing by a small me. I felt the urge to share my art with you and encourage you to be light in the darkness.
Because you see, if you shine your light, and I shine mine, and we each fan one another’s flame, then the darkness will lose some of it’s dark and maybe, just maybe it will matter to someone and make a difference. Maybe if you what you can do and I do what I can do—however small it may seem—and shine the light on the good and the innocent and the pure and the wonder in this world, we’ll turn the tide and point others to God’s love for them.
I have a challenge for you. Join me. Commit to the Shine YOUR Light pledge:
“I will be a light in the darkness.
I will light someone else’s way today, with a smile, a hug, a loving word, a kind deed, an act of generosity.
I will put my love for God into an action of goodness that points others back to the Father who loves us all, and Jesus who died so that we might live.”
So, here are my small offerings…I created these inspirational art manifestos for YOU. Yes, YOU. They are FREE for you to use as desktop wallpaper for you iPhone, iPad and computer desktop, respectively.
