THE CANDLE
Said George Whitefield... "Don't expect God
to use you as a lighthouse somewhere else, if he
can't use you as a candle where you are."
"So you want to be a lighthouse for the Lord,
eh, Morgan?"
"I think that would be really neat."
"Don't you realize that all of my lighthouses
have been lighted by candle power...
magnified by the powerful lens of the Holy Spirit...
I build my lighthouses... and i light them with whomever I will."
"Yes, Lord."
"If you wish to be a lighthouse, be one for that man
you see in the mirror every morning...
Stop shooting off will-nilly sparks and become a bright
flame for your family."
"Thank you, Lord. Help me to be a glowing candle
for my family. Help me glow brightly
just where I am."
