and somehow, remembering that, i was also reminded of the picture God showed me last year. it was a picture of a metropolitan city, with people scattered all about it. they were formless, pillers of ashes. but in a slight moment, what looked like sunlight started to beam across the city from the left horizon. the instant it touched the pillars, the ashes began to flutter away, giving color and shape and an identity to the beings. this time, the most striking part of the picture was the brilliance of the light. it clearly plays a dominant role in this motion picture, but just how much of it, i didn't realize before. last year, without even question, the light represented the believers touching out to this nation (as we should be the light of this world), but more and more it's becoming clear that Jesus, God, Holy Spirit is this light, that only by their love and grace and brilliance can they touch a nation as such. and with that, i'm humbled to pray more, t0 have more faith, to desperately depend on God for this mission.
