Full Moon

This morning a story from my childhood came to my mind. I remember one of my favorite stories was told on a live recording of a singer named Barry McGuire called "To The Bride" with him, The 2nd Chapter of Acts, and A Band Called David. He spoke of taking a trip on a ship and being out on deck at night watching dolphins play in the reflection of the moon on the water. He had a revelation that it's not nearly as important how much his own light shown but rather how much he reflected the light of God for others to see. Like the moon reflects the light of the sun, those living a spiritual life are reflections of their Creator. This morning, my prayer echoes that of the cry I heard from Barry so many years ago. God, I want to be a full moon!
