Metaphorically speaking, Christians should be lighthouses for God’s kingdom, internally and externally. May our inner light manifest itself as a reflection to others of Jesus, the One who is the “Light.” (John 8:12 & 9:5)
Curtis Lighthouse, Camden Maine |
Ram Island Ledge Light |
Thus, seeing first hand lighthouses along the northeast coast of Maine, I was reminded that I, too, am to be a lighthouse for the Lord, standing firm & praying for others in their storms.
Portland Head Light |
Lighthouses stand strong and firm in the storm. Portland Head Light has stood since commissioned by President George Washington in 1787.
Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse South Portland, ME |
Though built in Fort William for protection, I like what
evangelist, Dwight Moody said, “ Lighthouses don’t fire cannons to call
attention to their shining---they just shine" just as Bass Harbor Light in the FOG!
Lighthouses are built to serve--even as inspiration for this Arizona artist at Owl's Head Lighthouse.
A light to guide us “home.”
Rockland Breakwater Light--1.7 mile walk over boulders with water splashing over our feet. I was glad to reach a "home" of solid ground! |
God's love is like a lighthouse---a bright light of love reaching out to us through the darkness of any storm as I prayed for dear friend, Winslow. Shedding God's love abroad.
A great reminder during my eastern shore travels---

See a lighthouse--Be a lighthouse!
