Shine the light

2 Corinthians 4:3–6 

God says let light shine

out of darkness – take, then,

the light God has shone

into your hearts and shine

with that light, that hope, that love. 

And may the Light guide you,

keep you, and inspire you, 

that Light of God, Holy One, Holy Three. 

Amen. 

live well, in love and peace!

a benediction – 2 Corinthians 13:11–13 

After all, my siblings, rejoice!
Hear our teaching and exhortations,
live well,  live in peace,
encourage one another.

Holy One who is love and peace
is with you – embrace
one another in love.

Grace, as with Wisdom,
love, from our Parent,
and kinship, in the Spirit,
be with and between you all. Amen.
