Spiritual light

Beverly Jean McCreary

Seek it. Find it. Hold on to it.
Wake up to it. Accept it. Rejoice in it.

Yes, these were valid steps, and still are.

Share it. Magnify it. Imbibe it.
Reflect it. Discern it. Bathe in it.

Indeed, Christ-healing comes as these are heeded.

Walk in it. Sing of it. Stand with it.
Love it. Live it.
know it. Show it.
Feel it. See it.
Above all, be it.

Be the light.
Your Master said you are,
And he never told a lie.
So hush that constant cry "it's over there"
and be that light of good
right where
you are

("the light of the world")!
