"Light My Candle" "For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness" (Psalm 18:28) "Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.  Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven"  (Matthew 5:14-16). I wonder how many of you know what the second most frequented single tourist attraction is in Massachusetts?  After all, Massachusetts has many historical sites in Boston and Plymouth, the Berkshire Mountains and Cape Cod, all with many interesting facts and stories of famous people. Well, it will probably surprise you as it did me. The highest attendance is at the Freedom Trail in Boston, but the second highest is the Yankee Candle Flagship store in South Deerfield (over 2 million visitors a year). We, along with friends Rick and Rachel, were numbered among those current statistics yesterday. The flagship store is designed as one of the original models for "shoppertainment" and it is indeed both.  It would be an exaggeration to say Yankee Candle displays millions of candles though it seems like it when you walk through their flagship store. But their brochure indicates that they have 200 famous Yankee scents and display some 400,000 candles. Since candles are usually a girl sort of thing, they provide a classic auto museum with eighty exhibits for the men!  They also provide a lot of benches which were occupied by men during our visit yesterday. Candles individually don't put out a great deal of light, but imagine how much light the candles in this store would provide if their wicks were lit all at once!  Today God has called us to let our light shine in a darkened world.   I remember talking with a Pastoral couple who went to Bible College in an area where a great number of believers resided in the community and surrounding area.  After graduation they returned to their home state where there is much unbelief and cynicism.  I asked Judy, the Pastor's wife, "Weren't you tempted to stay in an area where people are more receptive to the Gospel?" She quickly responded, "No, I couldn't wait to return to my home state. The darker the sight, the brighter the light."  She was basically saying that if we, as believers, shine our light before the darkened world, brightness, truth, and deliverance will follow. This couple has served the same congregation for over 40 years now and they've seen many people come to Christ over the years. You may work with many dedicated Christians in a well-lit place and feel your light doesn't really make a difference, yet you are a vital part of the whole.  Have you ever attended a wedding ceremony or other candlelighting service where one candle burns out? Have you seen a store sign lit up at night with one letter missing its back up light? How about a strand of lights that aren't working on the Christmas tree?  It's an eyesore and your eye is often drawn to the unlit or broken part, rather than the whole candelabra or the business sign in its entirety. When we, as believers, allow the life changing message of Christ to wane in our lives or behave in a manner that does not glorify Him our flame flickers. If it goes completely unchecked our light can burn out. We don't want to bring disgrace or further the darkness but rather we want to honor the One "who has called us out of darkness into His marvelous light." Today the Almighty God of the universe has called us to let our light shine.  Let's do so! Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily prayer: Father God, You have called us to be a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people set apart to show forth the praises of Christ who has called us out of darkness into His marvelous light.  Since You have enlightened our darkness we will not conceal it in the privacy of our home or car, but we want to shine it forth wherever we are; in the marketplace, in the business place, in the neighborhood, in the voting booth, in church and wherever we have opportunity to bring forth light in this world of darkness.  We can make a difference and want to do so.  We want to witness faithfully through Jesus Christ our Lord in whose name we pray.  Amen.

Brooksyne and Rachel comfortably posing at one of their favorite shopping sights in New England - the Flagship Yankee Candle Village.  The Yankee candle fragrances in our cars will make it a pleasurable drive through New England all the way home to Pennsylvania.  "Roasted Coffee" fragrance filled the car yesterday to the point of our stopping for coffee at a Coffee Shop during the heavy rains. We couldn't resist taking a photo of this cow catching a frisbee.  It made us think of Mollie, Ester's Border Collie Pup, who loves to catch frisbees.  She begs to play all through the day by dropping the frisbee at anyone's feet who's willing to toss a few. One of those comfy benches where the men get to rest or in this photo Stephen is hibernating with the bear though I'll  wake him up to pay the bill at the check out counter. He just wishes he could sleep through the winter. Ester got in on the action as she stood beside a 602# pumpkin at Yankee Candle.  It weighed in just a little bigger than the butternut squashes we grew at home this year.

Daily Encouragement (09/28/11) "Whom I Serve"

Daily Encouragement Net
A daily, Bible-based message of hope and encouragement.

Having trouble reading this message?  Read mobile edition online

Follow Daily Encouragement on Facebook and Twitter        The online Bible teaching ministry of Stephen & Brooksyne Weber. Home · About Us ·· Podcast · Free email <Previous Message  ·  Archives  ·  Archive edition Wednesday, September 28, 2011  Doesn't this bench look like a great place to sit, enjoy a cup of coffee, and fellowship with a friend on a crisp fall day! Listen to this message on your audio player. "Whom I Serve" "Now Elijah the Tishbite, from Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, 'As the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, whom I serve, there will be neither dew nor rain in the next few years except at my word'" (1 Kings 17:1). Brooksyne has taught children since she committed her life to Christ in Junior High School. That's now a whopping 40 years and she's stored up many funny memories from the impromptu expressions of children. Once she was teaching on Elijah and, in describing Elijah, she told the children that he was a "bold man."  Making sure that she was not talking over their heads, she asked her preschoolers what the word "bold" meant. Mandy quickly raised her hand and with much confidence answered, "He didn't have no hair." (Interestingly, Elisha, who followed Elijah, was indeed a bald man!) Elijah is certainly among the greatest characters of the Bible.  We have no background information on him except for the information found in the daily text, "the Tishbite, from Tishbe in Gilead", which is how he is introduced into the Biblical narrative. He served God during the notoriously wicked reign of Ahab and Jezebel.  He is distinct in the manner of his exit from this world and for later standing with Jesus and Moses at the Mount of Transfiguration.  He is introduced in the Biblical record by boldly approaching the wicked, polytheistic king with an eternally true declaration: "As the Lord, the God of Israel lives."  Today, some 2,850 years later we who follow Christ likewise proclaim, "The Lord lives".  And He is alive forevermore! But it's the next phrase in the Scripture text that especially grips my heart as I prepare this encouragement; only three simple, monosyllabic words, "whom I serve."  What a bold stand to take before the wicked and powerful king who made it very clear how he felt about the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. In our day we, as believers, often let fear drive us as we attempt to witness. We keep the message subtle so there is no fallout if the recipient rejects our witness. But Elijah took a bold, unambiguous stand for the living God. Prosperity, along with spiritual apostasy (falling away from the faith), characterized the reign of Ahab. This story is an interesting parallel to world conditions today, isn't it? Certainly I know that many in the world live in severe poverty and that here in America, as well as many other countries, we face economic uncertainty but I still assert, for the most part, we live in prosperous conditions.* Ahab, though a descendant of Abraham, didn't want to hear from this prophet and set out to kill him as a result of this prophecy of drought.  And there are plenty today who don't want to hear anything from those who represent the living God. Today we need men and women, teenagers and children, all around the world, who like Elijah will unashamedly declare their faith in the living God. May we personally proclaim, "The Lord lives, whom I serve" and boldly confront our apostate culture.  How can we go about doing that today? Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily prayer: Father, I boldly declare that You are the living God whom I serve.  Only a God like You can turn evil into good, exchange sorrow for joy, or offer life beyond the grave.  May I fearlessly proclaim You to be the Lord and Savior of my life and tell of all Your wondrous deeds.  I join with the apostle Paul in asking that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel to those who have not yet heard or comprehended its meaning for their lives. Amen. Note: We are traveling to New England this morning and will continue to post daily encouragement messages but not necessarily each weekday. * As our standard of living has risen so has our expectations and sense of entitlement to the "good life". When we do not receive what we feel we are entitled to, we may feel less than prosperous.  This is a deception. Most all of us have indoor plumbing, electricity, a roof over our head and many other material blessings that others do not have.

Daily Encouragement (09/27/11) "How Sweet Are Your Words!"

Daily Encouragement Net

Follow Daily Encouragement on Facebook and Twitter        The online Bible teaching ministry of Stephen & Brooksyne Weber. Home · About Us ·· Podcast · Free email <Previous Message  ·  Archives  ·  Archive edition Tuesday, September 27, 2011 This outstanding photo of a bee collecting nectar was taken by our friend Mike Book. I am most impressed by the translucent wings! (Note however that this is not a honeybee) Click on photo for larger version! Listen to this message on your audio player. "How Sweet Are Your Words!" "Sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb (Psalm 19:10) "How sweet are Your words to my taste! Yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!" (Psalm 119:103). "Thy words were found and I ate them, and Thy words became for me a joy and the delight of my heart; For I have been called by Thy name, O Lord God of hosts" (Jeremiah 15:16). Mike and Kathy are longtime friends who make their home in North Carolina. On their last visit they brought us a very sweet treat; a quart of honey! I suppose honey is a universal gift that will bless virtually all. I recall a song that has this line, "Bees make honey and it sure tastes good." It was a teaching tape for children concerning the fruit of the spirit. Brooksyne's favorite candy is "Bit-O-Honey" a small, chewy morsel with a rich, creamy, honey-nutty flavor. It's been around since 1924 so she even had it when she was a little girl! (Editor's Note: I wasn't around that early, Stephen!) Preparing for a long trip we might buy a bag and share it among family members since "the chew" makes the long journey just a little sweeter (especially if we are caught in a traffic jam!) The great thing about the Bible is the universality of the illustrations. I don't know this for sure but I suppose that regardless of where you live you have bees and honey. David wrote today's Scripture portion some 3,000 years ago and he was from a part of the world far away from where I live. Even as I type my appetite is building for a piece of hot buttered toast spread with the North Carolina honey.  I've no doubt that it will be sweet to my mouth and the taste will linger for awhile. Psalm 119 is a wonderful extolling of the Scriptures. David would have had far less of the written word than we have today, since much of the Old Testament and all of the New Testament were not yet written. Yet he declared, "How sweet are Your words to my taste! Yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!"  May we approach the Scriptures with this same attitude when we read God's Word.  Consider this text the next time you enjoy some honey! Physically, munching can lead to over indulgence and undesirable weight gain. In fact in my own life an identifiable issue of self-control is munching! I am capable of munching throughout the day. There are days where I might be taking in more through munching than regular meals. I would do well to post signs that say, "No Munching!" on the fridge and here at the desk. But there is an area of my life where munching is allowed and is in fact a good thing contributing to spiritual growth. It doesn't replace the established habits of the spiritual life such as Bible study, prayer and fellowship with other maturing believers. But I believe the ability to partake of spiritual nutrition, such as meditative munching on God's Word throughout the day, is healthy.  It might be a Bible verse shared by a friend, a brief prayer at work with a fellow worker or an edifying Christian song we hear on the radio.  I hope for many of you healthy munching on spiritual morsels throughout your day includes this brief devotional!  The Psalmist wrote, "How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!" As we meditate on God's Word throughout the day we can taste of the goodness of the Lord! Perhaps we need to post a sign that reads, "Spiritual munching allowed and encouraged!"  It will surely bring a smile to your face as it brightens your countenance throughout the day. Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily prayer: Father, deep in my soul I have peace and reassurance as I "chew" on a particular Scripture verse throughout my day.  You speak to me through Your Word and it refreshes and often challenges me as it lingers on my mind. It helps me to focus not just on the here and now.  Sometimes You use the words of a Christian song and it's recurring tune to fill my thoughts as I go about my work.  At times You bring to mind the words of a Christian friend or a written message that draws me from indifference or complacency and inspires me to meditate on the Living Word.  You satisfy my hungry heart and fill my thirsty soul with Your living water. Your words are a sweet savor to my soul as I walk in obedience to Your Holy Word.  Amen.
