Shine Bright
There once was a young boy who was terrified of the dark. One day there was a terrible thunderstorm and there was a power out. Leaving the young boy scared and alone, the mother went into the closet to get some candles. When she went into the closet, she went to pick up one of the candles. "Not me !" the candle yelled. "I don't have enough experence." "Not me" said another. "I'm too young". "I can't do it" said another. "I'm worried my light might not shinebright enough". The mother left the closet empty handed. She found no candle brave enough to take a chance. The funny thing was, each candle was made with the purpose to give a light.Each of them could have impacted the little boy's life. Even though they each knew they were made to eliminate darkness, none of them were willing to take a chance....
That can be like us somtimes. God has given us all gifts. We know them and that they have a purpose, but sometimes we are scared to use them and don't. But this is what I think. God blesses us with talents and abilities and we should never be afraid to use them, because you never know whos life might be changed by your light.
