JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Daniel 4:34.

These are the words of an influential leader who was brought to a place of humility after a season of insanity.

King Nebuchadnezzar raised his eyes toward heaven. His sanity was restored, and he said, “Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified him who lives forever. His dominion is an eternal dominion; his kingdom endures from generation to generation.”

Before he was driven to insanity, King Nebuchadnezzar was focusing on his own kingdom and taking pride in it. After he was restored, he praised and exalted the king of heaven. Those who walk in pride he is able to humble. Humbling experiences are opportunities to fall down on our knees to acknowledge the worthiness of our King in heaven.

This Light Reflection inspires us to acknowledge the goodness and greatness of God in the Year to Shine.
