Rise & Shine in 2009
My sister says that 2009 is her year to shine! I just love this one so I told her it was going on my blog!
One of my favorite hymns...
Rise, and shine, and give God his glory, glory,
Rise, and shine, and give God his glory, glory,
Rise, and shine, and give God his glory, glory,
Children of the Lord.
Here is another great Children's song that I started humming (based on Matt 5:16)...
I'm looking to shine in 2009 as well! Less of me & more of Him.
2008 is a distant memory & I'm looking forward. I don't do resolutions.
My "saying" for this year is, "I'm ready for peace, prosperity & purpose!"
Here are some scriptures that I am claiming for 2009 - John 15:2-5 & Psalm 51:12
I pray that 2009 is filled w/shiny, sparkly light for you - God Bless!!

During my prayer time, which has been in the shower lately as it's the only uninterrupted time I have, the following came to my mind around my sister's "shine saying"...
One of my favorite hymns...
Rise, and shine, and give God his glory, glory,
Rise, and shine, and give God his glory, glory,
Rise, and shine, and give God his glory, glory,
Children of the Lord.
One of my favorite scriptures...
"so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe" Phil 2:15
Here is another great Children's song that I started humming (based on Matt 5:16)...
- This little light o' mine, I'm goin' let it shine,
- This little light o' mine, I'm goin' let it shine,
- This little light o' mine, I'm goin' let it shine,
- Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and your family! Can I shine for Him with you? That is such a lovely idea.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you've read "The purpose driven life" by Rick Warren but if you're looking for purpose this is a great place to start. I've been reading it with a group of ladies and it has made an immense change in my life :)
ReplyDeleteI'll pray for God to bring all of those things into your life and more.
Fabulous post!
ReplyDeleteI left you an award over at my place.
