SHINING BRIGHTLY=DON'T YOU JUST WISH........




SHINING BRIGHTLY=DON'T  YOU JUST WISH
YOU COULD BE A STAR?
We have all KINDS OF STARS
In this world
Movie stars=sports stars=stars of
Medicine=and just plain
EVERY DAY STARS
But what is it about
The STARS in the SKY
That captures our imagination?
They stir the emotions
In the HUMAN HEART
They just have
A MYSTERIOUS PRESENCE about them
"But the wise
Shall SHINE BRIGHTLY........
And those who lead
The many to justice
Shall be
Like the stars FOREVER"                                                                                                            Daniel 12:3
SHINING BRIGHTLY
Don't you just wish
You could be A STAR?
Don't you just feel
A MYSTERIOUS UNION
With the stars?
Don't you just wish
That you could LIVE forever
And shine brightly
Forever in the SKY?
The prophet Daniel
MAY have felt that way too
He used them as a metaphor
For men and women=who=
DO speak for JUSTICE
SHINING BRIGHTLY=living
Like a star
In the sky
"The path of the righteous
IS like the morning sun
SHINING ever brightly
Till the full light
Of day"                                                                                                                      Proverbs 4:18
"We also have
The prophetic message
As something completely reliable
And you will do well
To pay attention to it
As to a light
SHINING in a dark place
Until the day dawns
And the MORNING STAR rises
In your hearts"                                                                                                                2 Peter 1:19
"His face was like
The sun=SHINING
In all its brilliance"                                                                                                                 Revelation 1:16
IF we are a
People of justice
If we are like
A SHINING STAR
We can shed light
For the impoverished
And disadvantaged
in this world
We can SHED LIGHT
To dispel the darkness
In this world
Be like a STAR=and
Shed light on this world
FOREVER=with your life
"A STAR will come
Out of Jacob
A scepter
Will rise out of ISRAEL"                                                                                                    Numbers 24:17
BE like a STAR
SHINE BRIGHTLY=bring love and
JUSTICE FOR ALL
In Jesus' name and the name of OUR ALL LOVING FATHER
