Shine your Light and Love people

"OUR DEEPEST IS NOT THAT WE ARE INADEQUATE.OUR DEEPEST FEAR IS THAT WE ARE POWERFUL BEYOND MEASURE. IT IS OUR LIGHT, NOT OUR DARKNESS, THAT MOST FRIGHTENS US.

WE ASK OURSELVES: WHO AM I TO BE BRILLIANT, GORGEOUS, TALENTED, FABULOUS? ACTUALLY, WHO ARE YOU NOT TO BE?
YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD. YOUR PLAYING SMALL DOES NOT SERVE THE WORLD.THERE IS NOTHING ENLIGHTENED ABOUT SHRINKING SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE WON'T FEEL INSECURE AROUND YOU. WE ARE ALL MEANT TO SHINE, AS CHILDREN DO.WE WERE BORN TO MAKE MANIFEST THE GLORY OF GOD IN US. IT'S NOT JUST SOME OF US. IT'S IN EVERYONE.
AND AS WE LET OUR LIGHT SHINE, WE UNCONSCIOUSLY GIVE OTHER PEOPLE PERMISSION TO DO THE SAME. AS WE ARE LIBERATED FROM OUR OWN FEAR, OUR PRESENCE AUTOMATICALLY LIBERATES OTHERS"


(Marianne Williamson - and quoted by Nelson Mandela 1994 at his inauguration)

God rekindled my heart: where does HE send me?


God has rekindled my heart for it this week as well:
In my quiet time, I saw a picture of a theatre house, a dance rehearsal room with the jury sitting down with the crowd and up on stage a spotlight waiting for the main person to enter the stage: First there came a woman, she told the story of a broken lady which moved me (sitting in the jury) to tears. She broke down as the next candidate came on stage: a man, not knowing who he was, lost and wounded. One after another came…. hurt people, beaten women etc. My heart ached and I cried heavy tears. “These are the people I send to you, Kerstin. And what you are feeling now is only a slight little bit of what I am feeling in my heart, says the LORD!”

It is to those that God called me and whatever I need to do I will do and whatever I need to learn and be challenged with, here I am God, use me.
