There is a colossal storm out there.
The greatest you’ve ever seen.
And it’s frightening.
Cold.
And ominous…

BUT
You were designed for this.
You came to the shine light into darkness
through the deep waves
the troughs
the mountains
of our earthly chaos.

So, hold your ground.
Beam your love
where love has gone lost or forgotten.
And be a lighthouse
for the drowning, and the weary,
and the sailors who have lost their way.

You know how to do this.
You were just waiting for the time
when you would be asked to
turn up your light.
And that time is NOW.
