This may be a word you have not heard.

However….whenever you look at the Sun
you see the non-verbal definition.

The definitive synonyms are ….

shining
radiant
beaming
brilliant
incandescent
resplendent

From The Same Hand that created the orb in the sky which lights and awakens all of daily life ….

is given to us another LIGHT that awakens Joy, awakens our spirits and even the face with which we view the world.

It is the similar light that
threw Saul from his horse and into his “Paul” life….
and the walk, witness and writings which changed the world.

It’s the similar light which the three closest to JESUS saw on the mountain top when He took them there to see Him and two of His Predecessors.

It’s most likely the similar light that
beamed over Nazareth and drew the men tending sheep to a stable.

It’s also the light which shines in an adolescent’s face when it sees a grandparent.

This same radiance is seen on the face of a bride walking toward her future.

It’s seen on the face of a father seeing the first born.

As it says in The Word which guides many lives……it is The Light of Life.

The Light of all of Life.

It’s the incandescent resplendence
we will see when The One we await
returns in the Glory prophesied about His Coming.

That’s a good phrase to consider as you think on and consider His current and future appearance….

INCANDESCENT RESPLENDENCE.

And….

it can be seen in you.

It may be the radiance found on Mary’s face as she held the newborn in her arms …. remembering the words given her….
by Gabriel, most likely, for he is the one who heralds great events.

It most assuredly is the effulgent beauty seen in and on the faces of those who loved Him ….. when they saw Him on that
light-filled Sunday, after He walked out of the temporary tomb.

If The Sun has the brilliant light we see on every clear day….
and the light which is so radiant it lights every corner of our world, even on cloudy days…

imagine the LIGHT of HEAVEN
made ready for us
created by the same Hand.

Here is a secret which we all should know….if we know Him….

this radiance
this brilliance
this shining resplendence…..

is in us.

We simply cannot allow the clouds and storminess of life to shroud that LIGHT from being seen in, on and through us.

It’s in us.

If we know Him.

If we follow Him.

It’s the effulgent Light of all Life…

which lights all of life…

and is intended to Light every Life.

If we allow Him to shine as He
can….

His Light will light our life…

then the world we walk in will see the effulgent brilliance in our eyes…..

in our faces

In our lives…

as we reflect that presence
within

which is
Incandescent Resplendence
in its purest.

We control the switch.
