A smile opens your soul

This is a thought that I have been thinking on for the last week. I really don't have time right now to develop this thought but I thought I would throw down a few ideas and then finish the entry at a later date.

I have always been a fan of the smile. Many times I purposely put on a smile and I have noticed that it always makes me feel better. I know that just a simple smile from someone else can make me feel better and lift my spirits as well.
The other day I fought what does let your light shine mean. What is the most evident sign of someone letting their light shine? It would have to be the smile that they place on their face. Look at the smiling face on a baby. Isn't that as fresh as the sun coming up in the morning. Isn't that as encouraging as light being shown in the darkness?
I think, that as we smile that that pulls on the strings of our soul and our spirit and just causes it to open up and let the abundance of Christ in the love of Christ flow out of us into the lives of other people.

 So, let your light shine today. Share a smile with someone.

The many layers of victory

Some victories are quick and decisive. Others are achieved with mundane repetition of consistency and discovery.

I think at my age.. most of the things that are just going to "drop off"  have.  It seems now.. the issues I have to deal with are there because of many years of believing the wrong things.  It seems the process is now to unravel those many layers of wrong thinking.  Sometimes the things we face are not new issues... but just another layer working our way to freedom.
