365 Days of Spirit-Filled Fruits Challenge-Day 117 & 118

The glow-in-the-dark party was a big hit. It reminds me of what Dr Arno said in my video class about how you can be in a dark room and light a candle and that one little candle can shine light throughout the room. Darkness aka evil doesn’t like the light of truth. All of the glow-in-the-dark stuff they created made the room come alive. The scariness of being in the dark was put aside because of the glow-in-the-dark things. The light of truth does the same thing within the darkness of our hearts. We become truly alive with the light within us glowing. My prayer is that the light burns brighter and brighter within which means it will shine all the more on the outside to others.

2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

Do things ever go as you plan? No, of course not. We are in the final prep stages for my daughter's 10th glow-in-the-dark slumber party. I have had to make the room as dark as possible covering the windows and other small light sources. We have 2 black lights set-up. The girls are going to paint glow-in-the-dark paint on black t-shirts, make glow-in-the-dark lava lamps, paint glow-in-the-dark jar lanterns, make glow-in-the-dark slime, paint their toes with yep, you guessed it, glow-in-the-dark nail polish. Not to mention paint their faces and finish the wall decor all of which will glow as well. There has been a lot of prep work and than I had to go and decide to make a homemade ice cream cake. Well, it is looking good and just needs the last minute decor put on it. I am old enough and wise enough to know that all our plans are not under our control. How everything happens will be determined by God? So we've made our plans and said our prayers that all will come out well now it's up to God. Say a prayer for us it all goes well!
Micah 4:12 But they do not know the thoughts of the Lord; they do not understand his plan.
