We went to the Festival of Lights several weeks ago at Maejo University in Chiang Mai. They have a mass lantern release, where they release several thousand lanterns at the same time! It was breathtaking and really got me thinking! We are to let our light so shine before men that they may see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven! It almost seemed like an object lesson to me, where we are the lights! When the lights are lighted they can't help but rise higher into the sky. The higher they rise the more they can be seen. I saw many lanterns that had lost their fire later that had plummeted back to earth. They were useless when on the ground but when their fire was rekindled they would rise again into the sky! When you have Jesus in your heart you can’t help but shine out to those around you! Let Jesus love burn in your hearts today!
