He often appeared as a bright light, but he was not the Light.
He spent a lifetime loving Me so well that My Light radiated from every pore.
He was not the Light, but he is a beautiful reflection of My love.
In him I am well-pleased.
You do not need to fear his light burning out, because it was not his light.
I have used him to place My Light in you as well.
For some, he has lit the candle;
for others, he has fanned the flame.
He has spread My Light to more people than this world could know.
So, My Light in him will not die, because it has multiplied.
His legacy is each flame;
your legacy is how you nurture it.
Guard the flame I have placed in you
and I will do the same with your life that I have done with his.
You will be a reflection of My Light; one that multiplies.

Michaela L. Carson is a biblically-guided author and speaker who has served in Christian ministry for over 25 years. Gifted with a passion for writing at a young age, Michaela has used this gift to minister to the Church by writing and teaching Bible study curricula for children, small groups, and women. Her involvement in multiple church ministries has blessed her with a unique perspective on discipleship and spiritual disciplines. She has a strong desire to help others experience deeper growth in their walk with Jesus by transparently sharing her own spiritual journey.
