Turn Toward The Light - SOS no. 79

Sharing Our Stories Magic

Flowers don’t worry about how they’re going to bloom. They just open up and turn toward the light and that makes them beautiful.

[Jim Carrey]

Stand your ground and be

still; know that I am God,

and trust in the Lord with all your heart;

turn not to the left or to the right.

Open my lips, Lord, and my mouth will declare

your praise. For my

eyes have seen your salvation. Your wisdom is

wider than the sea

and your ways are higher than my ways. So I

look to the hills

for my help comes from the LORD. For

the words of the Lord endure forever. Your word is a

light to my path; a lamp to my feet. I will praise your

Name, the name which is above every name, and I will give

it the honor due. How excellent is your

Name in all the earth! For 

the earth is the Lord's and all it's fullness. You are the

light of the world. Let us walk

in the light of the Lord. God, you are good and 

your mercy endures forever. Even when the enemy lurks around every

corner, I trust that you will take hold

of my heart and mind. You hold

the whole world - my whole

world - in the palm of your hand, and I hope in you.

Now hope does not disappoint. Lord, I pray you will

turn your face 

toward me and give me peace. For

it is your Word and your Light, O God, that makes my life beautiful.
