And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron and his sons, This is the way you shall bless the Israelites. Say to them, The Lord bless you and watch, guard, and keep you; The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; The Lord lift up His [approving] countenance upon you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually). - Numbers 6:22-26
Do you know what God's countenance is? It is His face, His appearance. If a man or woman were to quote words from this passage to another, it would be like them saying, "May others see God's glory shining upon you and through you." I understand it can be hard to accomplish this. When life really gets hard, being the light of somebody's day can be far from easy. That is when prayer comes in. Ask the Lord to make His face shine upon you. Ask Him to lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace. Ask HIm to shine His glory upon you, as He did with Moses. Then, when you get that light, use it to glorify God! It's as easy as putting a smile on your face. The light of God's glory is in you, but if you never show it outwardly, people won't be blessed. So, shine on!
