Good Morning!
Generations of seafaring men have been blessed, and know their salvation and safety has been because of lighthouses strategically positioned to send forth light. This light illuminated the dark and dangerous places and helped them safely reach the harbour.
Folks who spend their lives making sure the lighthouse light keeps shining, are remembered fondly as ‘keepers of the light‘.
In 2020, we who know Christ as both Glorious Saviour and Lord and have Him as our personal friend, have this special commission to be KEEPERS OF THE LIGHT. Now, we must keep it brightly shining in times of darkness and need. Just by living passionately for Him, loving, reaching out by phone calls letters or gently telling of Him…may we be, in our days, the ones who keep this LIGHT BLAZING.
As keepers of THE LIGHT (Jesus) may we ever stand for Him and shine so all may avoid the rocks of living, and safely reach the Harbour of eternity.
In Jesus’ Name. A-men.

About Faye
I m a wife, mother and grandmother. I have always enjoyed writing even from an early age. My book Beyond the Ashes has been written as a labour of love. All the characters are real to me and their story needed to be told. As a Christian my desire is to write General Fiction stories about real people but Hope and a desire for 'better' will always be part of the journey. I have had several short stories published over the years and moderate success in writing competitions.
I realized as I was thinking today (30/01/15) that perhaps I should add here that I have had life experiences of many valley times but also many mountain top experiences. I can understand and be beside anyone who finds their life in tatters because I have 'been' there. Of course as I have got older as well there have been the added sorrows of losing not only older family members but also one by one finding the dearest of friends and the ones of greatest support and care also dying. On the site of rich mountains has been my certainty of the value of marriage and how grateful I am that after loss and sadness I made a happy and long-lasting marriage commitment. The one who was my best friend back then is still my best friend 45 years later. Beyond the Ashes touches upon the POWER of LOVE when folk can forget about their own personal 'feelings' and reach out in LOVE to a desperate and broken person.
Absolutely spot on, I couldn’t agree more! Well written, and not just because I am a lighthouse nut. Light is one of the great themes in scripture, particularly in John’s Gospel. I have a blog on light too. God bless you and your pen.
