Does the Light of Christ Shine in Your Eyes?

Yes, it does! If you let it.

I may not always notice it, but it's there. A friend of mine, at work, said "You can always pick a Christian out of crowd of people, and you can always pick a Mormon out of a crowd of Christians." And maybe I don't always see it, but other people do. At work last night, a man came through. This was my missionary experience for that day:

Customer: You know, you are always so happy and cheerful, every time I come in. And you do a good job, with a smile on your face.
Me: well thank you!
Customer: You are a person of faith aren't you?
Me: yes, I am! :)
Customer: I knew it! I bet you're a Latter Day Saint, huh?
Me: yes, I am! :)
Customer: I thought so. I'm not, but I'm learing about it. I believe it because of that priesthood thing. That's how it should be.
Me: It sure is.
Customer: I can tell you believe it, it just shines out of you! What a blessing.

At the end of the line, I rang him up and he said "You know a saying I heard once? It went..." he paused for a moment to remember. "You're not just a pretty face, you are a blessing. And you know, it's true. There's something better in you. And people can see it."

That man, made my night!

Do you have any similar experiences? What do you think about the light that shines through? Please comment and let me know!

I think this video kinda goes right along with it:



And, smile, you are a child of God!
