God Shines His Light

God Shines His Light

For the last 2 weeks I have been listening to a song by Van Morrison called Whenever God Shines His Light. I can’t get this song out of my mind. I play it several times a day and let my spirit soak in it. God is singing the words of the song to all of you.

He loves you. He loves you no matter what. No matter what you have done. No matter where you are at in your life. No matter what you are struggling with. No matter what anyone is telling you. He loves you. His grace covers you. Yes, grace is unmerited favor but that’s the point. It’s a gift{ something given out of love} from our Father. Our Father is love and He is grace. His mission is to make sure that every moment of every day you will know His love and His grace. No matter what His love and His grace covers you. He waits for you; He will always wait for you. No matter what.

The words to the song go something like this:

Whenever God shined a light on me….
Opened up my eyes so I could see.
When I look up in the darkest night then I know everythings gonna be all right.
In deep confusion, in great despair….
when I reach out for Him, He is there.
When I am lonely as I can be then I know that God shines His light on me.
Reach out for Him, reach out for Him and He’ll be there.
Within your troubles you can share. You can use His higher power.
You’ll get the blessing from above.
He lifts you up and He turns you around.
And he puts your feet back on higher ground.
Reach out for Him and He’ll be there.
When God shines His light on you.


My dear sisters and brothers the words to the song are true. He is shining His light on you now. No matter what He loves you. His grace covers you. He will put your feet back
on higher ground. Reach out for Him. He’s there.
