A light Within

“David assembled all Israel in Jerusalem to bring the ark

of the Lord to the place which he had prepared for it.”

(1Chr 15:3).   In the Old Testament, the ark is the tabernacle

Where the Lord dwells.   In baptism we are sealed with the

Holy Spirit.  And so, we become a new Ark.  Many are the

Gifts of the Holy Spirit.  From the Holy Spirit’s gift of Courage

springs forth Peace.   Without Courage, there is precious little

Peace.  From the holy spirits gift of understanding springs

Forth Wisdom. And so,  the gift of the Holy Spirit is the gift

That we never quite finish unwrapping. I am reminded of a

Lyric: “This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine”. +
