“Your lives light up the world. For how can you hide a city that stands on a hilltop? And who would light a lamp and then hide it in an obscure place? Instead, it’s placed where everyone in the house can benefit from its light. So don’t hide your light! Let it shine brightly before others, so that your commendable works will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your Father in heaven.” “If you think I’ve come to set aside the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets, you’re mistaken. I have come to bring to perfection all that has been written. Indeed, I assure you, as long as heaven and earth endure, not even the smallest detail of the Law will be done away with until its purpose is complete.

Your first meditation will help you center on the light of God within you. In the second meditation, you will become more mindful of God’s light shining out. Finally, a meditation on God choosing you to light the world around you.
Being chosen by God means you are predestined to shine out the glory of God and shine among the world like the stars! But do you believe that? These guided audio meditations are a reflection on that shining. Discover the presence of God within you and reflect on emptying yourself of the false hope the world offers to be filled with the shining presence of the divine.
