"Gratitude exclaims, very properly, ‘How good of God to give me this.’ Adoration says, ‘What must be the quality of that Being whose far-off and momentary coruscations are like this!’ One’s mind runs back up the sunbeam to the sun." C. S. Lewis
cor.us.ca.tion (ˌkɒrəˈskeɪʃən) -- a sudden flash of light; sparkle; scintilate; gleam
I was fascinated with this word after reading the above quote from C. S. Lewis. What a marvelous thought that God gives us glimpses of His image on this earth by "coruscating" Himself in our daily lives. The purpose of this blog is to "coruscate" Him back "with radiant face;" to "reflect in flashes" who He is by praising Him for His work in my life.
The fellowship of believers is one of God's richest blessings. If anything I write here points you to Christ, or sheds the slightest glimmer of light along your path, then all the Glory belongs to God! Thanks for reading, and may the Father richly bless you!
Glorify the Lord with me, let us exalt his name together. I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. Psalm 34:3-5

Under His Wings
Under His wings I am safely abiding;
Though the night deepens and tempests are wild,
Still I can trust Him—I know He will keep me;
He has redeemed me and I am His child.
William O. Cushing
