    I lost my wife to suicide just 4 days after her 37th birthday. It's almost one year later and I still can't get over it. In top of that, my sister was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and is really sick. My faith has really been tested but God showed this song to remind me that both he and my wife are with me always. God Bless everyone

      I hope you are still staying strong in the Lord and have received blessings. We live in a sick world and are called to be light while we are here. Sometimes life just about puts out our fire for the Lord. Stay lit.

    After being lost for over a year, I finally feel like I'm being called back to God. I'd been feeling closer and closer to Him lately and today He provided me with everything I needed, like a shining light that was looking after me. I was searching for my old pastor that transferred to another church, and I found him today. I needed cash so I could take the bus home and God provided. I was in a situation with the government and God showed me the path out. And I needed a song to reaffirm my faith in God and He led me here. I only pray that I can find the strength to break my sinful habits and to keep God always at the forefront of my mind.

      Shawn Jenkins​ yes I agree. I felt away from Him for so long, but now I'm drawn closer and closer. I'm forcing myself to change my own thoughts and actions to be more appropriate of my example of God's love. And with His love in me, I'm drawing out the impure thoughts, the baser urges, and the primal anger that used to live inside me. It's a tough road but I know it'll be worth it when my own mind doesn't feel like an enemy.

    When I'm feeling all alone
    There's so far to go
    The signs are no where on this road
    Guiding me home
    When the night is closing in
    It's falling on my skin
    Oh God will you come close?
    Light light light up the sky
    You light up up the sky to show me
    That you are with me
    I I I can't deny
    No I can't deny
    That you are right here with me
    You've opened my eyes
    So I can see you all around me
    Light light light up the sky
    You light up the sky to show me
    That you are with me
    When stars are hiding the clouds
    I don't feel them shining
    When I can't see beyond my doubt
    The silver lining
    When I've almost reached the end
    Like a flood you're rushing in
    Your love is rushing in
    Light light light up the sky
    You light up up the sky to show me
    That you are with me
    I I I can't deny
    No I can't deny
    That you are right here with me
    You've opened my eyes
    So I can see you all around me
    Light light light up the sky
    You light up the sky to show me
    That you are with me
    So I run, straight into your arms
    You're the bright and morning sun
    To show your love there's nothing
    You won't do
    (you won't do)
    Light light light up the sky
    You light up up the sky to show me
    you are with me
    I I I can't deny
    No I can't deny
    That you are right here with me
    You've opened my eyes
    So I can see you all around me
    Light light light up the sky
    You light up the sky to show me
    That you are with me
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    That you are with me
    Oh oh o o oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    That you are with me
    Oh oh o o oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh.

      I hope nothing but the best for you and that your days be filled with sacred divinity and enlightenment.
      Always know you are a gift of creation and God's love, let not the inequities of humankind sully your heart or extinguish the fires of holy passion within you and let nothing tare asunder you unity with the Devine God of creation and love.
      Seek with all your heart and you shall find.
      Lord be the light in this person's darkness and watch over your sacred child with vigilants and help them walk in righteousness though your ethereal wisdom and impressions.

      Are you saved from your sins?
      Jesus commanded the apostles after His resurrection, to preach repentance and remission of sins, in His name, beginning at Jerusalem, and to wait for the promise of the Father, in Jerusalem. -Luke 24
      45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
      46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
      47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
      48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
      49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
      --
      And on the day of Pentecost, the Holy Ghost was poured out [Acts 2]
      And they spake with tongues as the Spirit gave the utterance.
      And Peter preached the gospel unto them and they were pricked in their hearts, and said, men and brethren what shall we do?
      And Peter said, Repent, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      This is how the bible says a man is to be saved.
      This is why Jesus said, he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved and he that believeth not shall be damned -Mark 16
      Acts 2:
      36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
      37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
      38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
      40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
      41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
      42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

That afternoon as I was leaving just before pulling out of her road onto the highway, I turned on the radio- and this song had just came on. Now of course it has a precious meaning to me and I will ALWAYS think of my sweet dear Dana who I know is with Jesus now.

    Words can't express how much I needed this song right now. I've always had a strange relationship to God and faith. I never really knew what was the right thing for me and honestly, I was afraid, I'd be laughed at... But I've been in a really bad state the past years and I slowly started to trust in God again, realising how much believing can actually help. And it feels amazing!

    • @ricktherrien8235
      @ricktherrien8235 Před 2 lety +1

      God is Good.Orderly.Direction and is here as a personal experience of life.
      It allows you to find who you are and why your here, life is not what we think the bad is just part of the experience and when you find God the experience reveals that whatever happens there always a force which guides us when we are unable to guide ourselves.
      Never be in fear or want because we are part of a United universal oneness which is made from pure creation and love.
      Sonetimes One will reach the point of total despair and darkness which will either divide him from life and all they know or grasp for something to hold on to and when that time comes one will be healed and touched by God through your hearts most profound experiences.
      We wonder why it takes such pain to be touched but it does not many experience God without suffering because they have been taught the way but those who are not do not seek him until it's a need and even then he comes to you.
      I've lived a very hard life of suffering but I never blamed God or disregarded his grace, I may have not have been one with him but I still did not mock or disregard him but I did wonder why I suffered so much.
      But I know that life is not about perfection it's about growing and the experience here and now so in my darkest hour God was the light that shawn through the shadow and lead me back into the arms of grace.
      Let light and love be with you and may the heavenly Father guide you to pastures of new salvation and prosperity.
      Never forget you are one with God and him you without both of you this experience would not be.
      Glory be to The Father The Son and The Holy Spirit as it was in the beginning now and ever shall be world without end Amen!!

      Zachary, don't fall into the trap of believing everything is dark. I felt that way for most of my life and all it did was tear me apart. We are designed for light not darkness! I was into drugs, alcohol, sex, robbing, partying, was homeless for a while, terrible relationships, my daughters mother dissapeared with my daughter, etc. From living my life on the streets all I could see from that point of view was darkness. Got to the point where I would cry everyday regretting bringing my children into a world I thought was all dark. Then anxiety and stress got me to a point where I didn't go an hour without thinking about blowing my brains out (honestly the only reason I didn't is because I refused to leave my children to fend for themselves alone in this world like my father did). Then I found the good Lord! I am clean and sober, have a small business, a house, an amazing wife and family, healthy beautiful children (found daughter and got custody), too many blessings daily to even list! Still have struggles, and everyone does, but with God they are nothing to deal with! Man I am not usually one to leave comments let alone read them but man yours pulled at my heart and I had to let you know thats not how the world works. At that age I feel we face a major crossroad choosing between light and darkness as we transition from child to adult. Choose light ( or "choose life" as the good book says), read the bible and congregate with like-minded people! Everything will be o.k. with God! And I will pray for you.

      Zachary Cox Im not saying to do everything bad, what Im saying is this world is ruled by suffering and so many problems, You have to learn that hatred and sorrow is power, they are yours to control, all you have to do is turn them into strength and use that strength to move forward.

      +Lane Gillespie I am so sorry for your loss. I know what it is like to lose someone close to you. Just six days ago (Feb 9) was the third anniversary of my moms' death. She had stage 4 breast cancer when she was first diagnosed. She fought it for 5 years, trying so many different treatments; Chemotherapy, Radiation, Surgical... I was twelve when my mom finally passed away. I can still remember how hard i cried that night. I cried so much that my eyes were swollen the next day. I felt so confused and even angry at God. Throughout that dark time in my life, I found myself always wanting to be alone and just away from the world. However, I always found comfort in my friends, family and God. I remember Him telling me that she will always be watching me from the windows of Heaven "cheering me on" as I remember it. She was such a strong Christian and I hope I can be as strong as she was. Do not shut people out, and do not lose your happiness for things will heal through time. Remember: 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God."

    Dear person who is reading this, I was a chronic sufferer of these things:
    vanity, lust, lying, cruel intentions, smoking marijuana, sexual immorality, pride, depression, sadness, anger, slander, gossip, drunkenness, profane language, cowardice ways, idolatry,pornography, impure thoughts .. PARTYING AND THE WORST OF ALL, a fornicator and adultress!!!! And everything else that you could imagine.....
    BUT IM HERE TODAY TO TELL YOU THAT YOU WILL OVERCOME AND GOD WILL CHANGE YOU WHEN YOU START TO BELIEVE!!! Jesus needs you to come to himin humbleness and pray in your room ALONE to Him and CONFESS TO HIM that you have sinned against Him in ALL your ways... It's okay to speak them out loud it's only you and Him there... Ask Him to Come into your heart, that you want to receive the Blood He shed for you and The Holy Spirit and He will give it to you! Repent and stop all the sins and then Pickup your cross and walk with Him! With all the sincerest meaning in your heart Jesus Will come in and Save you! Time is running out and He is looking for you to Change! If you take that one step then all you need left is to get baptized in water! His Holy seal will be on you! But there is more... You must then fight in your mind against the flesh and the enemy who will try tempting you to get back to the mess he wants you in .. DONT GIVE UP ! fight the Good Fight and kick that selfishness and start living selfless! You will know God is With you because the enemy will be threatened and then the battle begins... You will then start having to say no all the time to everything the evil one will send your way to get you to sin! But when you notice that, you then Pray pray pray! I'm telling you this because it happened to me! And everyday I have to pray to keep my mind on Jesus and keep my thoughts pure and my eyes looking up to Heaven! From a person who was at her worst, I can now tell you that I am waayyy better than I have ever been ALL BECAUSE OF JESUS CHRIST WHO TOLD ME TO SIN NO MORE!!! I THIS DAY AM TELLING YOU THAT JESUS CHRIST IS MY SAVIOR AND HE SAVED ME FROM OUT OF THE DEPTHS OF THE DARK PITS AND HE IS WITH ME. HE IS STILL WORKING ON ME TO THIS DAY! through all my sin and most recent backsliding I am now back completely and NEVER LOOKING BACK, God showed me that He can and will take his spirit away if I didn't go back home to him.... He kept calling me at that time and then I kept acting like I didn't hear Him... I was wrong for that and to this day I still feel that all the sorries and forgive me prayers in the world I prayed were not enough, that Jesus stayed mad at me... But I know that is the enemy and He is mad because I left the darkness and went back to the Light, it IS a battle and He lost, so naturally the evil one is attacking my mind.... But I'm NOT AFRAID AND I know Jesus is with me because I stopped sinning and went back to prayer and I can resist evil all by God's power, for I can't do this alone!!! Dear reader, YOU ARE AN OVERCOMER!!!!
    Dear Jesus Christ,
    I love you... I THANK YOU for showing me that YOU are able and YOU kept me away from destroying what you have built in me AGAIN! THANK YOU for my life again, THANK YOU for the help Of the Holy Spirit to resist evil, THANK YOU for prayer, THANK YOU for the CONVICTION that I so need!!! THANK YOU FOR NEVER TAKING YOUR HAND OFF ME JESUS!!!! I claim victory over the enemy in Jesus name AMEN!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️👏👏👏👏😭😭😭👏👏👏👏♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏

      Are you saved from your sins?
      Jesus commanded the apostles after His resurrection, to preach repentance and remission of sins, in His name, beginning at Jerusalem, and to wait for the promise of the Father, in Jerusalem. -Luke 24
      45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
      46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
      47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
      48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
      49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
      --
      And on the day of Pentecost, the Holy Ghost was poured out [Acts 2]
      And they spake with tongues as the Spirit gave the utterance.
      And Peter preached the gospel unto them and they were pricked in their hearts, and said, men and brethren what shall we do?
      And Peter said, Repent, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      This is how the bible says a man is to be saved.
      This is why Jesus said, he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved and he that believeth not shall be damned -Mark 16
      Acts 2:
      36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
      37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
      38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
      40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
      41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
      42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

    I was running away from God because I thought He would never forgive me again. I gave up on myself and lost all hope. I indulged I’m sin because why not enjoy the world when you still can since your going to hell anyway. That was my thought. After months of avoiding God, all I felt was emptiness. I tried praying but it did nothing. I thought the Holy Spirit had left me. I was hopeless, so I thought… one morning I woke up and this song popped in my head. I didn’t know the lyrics by I kept singing the chorus, “I can’t deny that you are with me, you light up the sky to show me”. I finally searched up the song and immediately started crying. I realized that this was a message from God that He had always been with me. Even when I gave up on myself, He NEVER did. I was never too far from his mercy, grace, and love. THANK YOU JESUS!

    @Deathbane_123 Před 8 lety +4

    This song really speaks about my life. I can't tell you how many times God has done something spectacular for me (how many times He has "lit up the sky"). Earlier this Spring I was a full time college student. One day, I came home from school feeling kinda off. After spending five days at home getting worse I finally went to the hospital via ambulance. As it turns out, I had Pneumonia and I had gone septic. I also had a heart condition at the time. I'm a Christian and have been so for a while--however, at the time I wasn't particularly seeking God. But he showed me that even though I wasn't crying out to Him He was reaching out to me. Within five days I was back on my feet and returned home (I am now fully recovered :) Later I discovered that only HALF of the people who've gone through this survive. If the Lord hadn't orchestrated me getting to the hospital, I probably wouldn't have made it through the night. So no matter what your walk with God is (even if your not a Christian) don't give up...look to Him and cry out his name. Because He is definitely thinking of you.

      God be witn you always and may he be your foundation and your light of glory.
      This music takes God's impression and reflects it upon those who need it the most.
      The music is the medium which transfers God's energy and presence through a less rigid religious example that does not impose upon ones sense of personal choice and allows them enjoy God in a way that eliminates the demands and restrictions of religion that create the feeling of judgement and the pressure of religious conformity and purity.
      This give a person the freewill to accept God however they wish and not by inducing fear and self consciousness related to the feeling we must apply proper holy conduct enforced through judgement and damnation and fear of failing God's will.
      God be with you always and glad to see you here even if it was a little while ago.
      I pray you never fall astray from the unity you have with The Lord our God!!
      Blessings to you always and peace to all and and all in peace!!

    This song is so touching. It should remind us all that no matter what our heartaches/troubles are, God is with us. God bless us all, and God bless the author of this wonderful song :)

    I have been that man laying on the ground... many of you can relate as well and this video brought me to tears because i heard it on the night i needed it the most... When you are standing on that ledge, no matter how much you may KNOW you are not alone... you can't FEEL it. This video made me feel it. If YOU are standing on that ledge right now, please know you aren't alone. To those of you who have been there and come back from it and fallen the other direction like me... please listen to Owl City's "Shooting Star" whenever I hear it, this is the video that plays in my head and I have since put them one after each other on the play list because "shooting star" fits so well with this song. You can be that shooting star for others. You don't have to upvote this, I won't ask for that... but if you would that would be awesome, and hopefully others can be touched as well with your firework and mine. God Bless

    This song let's us know that God's with us no matter what is going on in our lives and no matter what we are going through he will ALWAYS be there for us. God is Omnipotent, He has power over all things that happen in our lives, Omniscient, he knows everything and knows what's going on in our lives and omnipresent, he is everywhere and he is always with us.

    Many are lost whether they know it or not. Listen and you will hear happiness if only for a moment, the moment is worth it.
