“Let this be recorded for a generation to come, so that a people yet to be created may praise the Lord.” (Ps. 102:18)
I am not so vain as to think that my daily musings will serve to inspire thousands who come after me. Yet, this verse does remind me of the lasting influence, however small, each of us may have on those around us – especially our family and close friends.
So let your light shine as brightly as it can today. Never mind that others’ lamps may shine brighter. None of us, after all, are any more than channels of God’s mercy.
Channels only, blessed Master
But with all thy wondrous power
Flowing through us
Thou canst use us
Every day, and every hour.
