gathering the light; shining back

“The thing about light is that it really isn't yours; it's what you gather and shine back. And it gets more power from reflectiveness. If you become still and take it in, it fills your cup, and then you can give it off yourself.”
– Anne Lamott, Traveling Mercies
Affirm: “Today, I take in the radiant light of Infinite Spirit. I delight in God’s brilliance, and let it illuminate my heart and soul so completely that I become a beacon for Spirit’s loving presence. I am luminous. I give off light in the lives of my family, friends and all those in my orbit. Thank you, God, for this shining. Thank you forever. Amen. – Rev. Scott
