Be the Light that Shines this Christmas!

As you prepare to immerse yourself in the rituals of the season by decorating your home with lights or shopping for the perfect gifts, I encourage you to take time to sit in the silence and allow the light of God to permeate your soul. Instead of simply admiring the lights that adorn Christmas trees, homes and store displays, create an opening to become a source of light that blesses the world during this sacred season.

We find that the theme of light is a common thread in all of the winter holidays celebrated by various cultures. For example, the celebration of the Winter Solstice commemorates "the coming of the sun" as the days begin to grow longer once again. As metaphysical Christians, we acknowledge "the coming of the son" by celebrating the emergence of God's light within ourselves and awaken to the birth of Christ Consciousness in ourselves.

This glorious light of Christ Consciousness is the best gift we could possibly give a loved on as a Christmas gift this year. Shine your light of forgiveness, peace, and unconditional love everywhere you go this season and watch your world change in miraculous ways. I encourage you to make a committment to alighn yourself with the true meaning of Christmas. Let your spiritual light shine!
