Have you ever tried looking directly at a light?
If there's one hanging above you or outside, go stare at it
go look directly at it for the next minute or so
I'll wait here

dum dee dee dum dum
(in case you're wondering, I'm listening to the om nom nom song
which actually sounds like an actual song! But I digress.
Coincidentally, the song lasts a minute and 10 seconds, so you could listen to it while you stare at the light :D
Listen to the om nom nom song here

Back yet?
Now, if you did it right, you're probably seeing a purple after-image in the exact shape and size of whatever you were looking at
which might actually make it hard to read this thing. Hm. Got to give more thought about stuff like that.
Anyway, this effect is known as an after-image.
The light hitting the back of your eyes creates chemical changes
and if you're looking really long at a light of a certain shape and size, the chemical change back to complete darkness takes longer.

So it's probably been a good thirty seconds since you've seen the light (hahahahaha, I are so unintentional witty)
and by now the after-image is probably blurrier around the edges
I mean, you can still see the shape, but it's less defined than it was.

And by now, it's probably completely disappeared
except for the few lasts wisps of purple lingering in your visions.

So now I'm going to ask you to describe the light that you were looking at
without looking at it again
It's either gonna be something like
"It was white. And. Rectangularious".
WELL, if you were high and living in the nineteen eighties and had a kickass afro.
(Afros are like giant balls of fun-hair)
but you couldn't go into detail about it
"It was a cream-white light of 7.5 by 7.5 cm installed with 3.5mm screws and an incandescent Phillips light bulb".
Unless you were a robot.
I KNOW YOU EXIST, MR. ROBOT MAN
And one day we shall meet and have ice cream (or the robotic equivalent)
and I'll interview you on life as a robot
I've already got some questions planned!
"Do you get annoyed when people thank you with 'Domo arigato, mr. roboto'?"

I NEED TO STOP DIGRESSING

but the point here is this: the less time you spend looking at the light,
the faster it fades,
the faster you forget about it

and it's the same when we look at God.

whoa, shocked you there? you were expecting me to hang left but I bobbed in right and WHAMMM, blind-sighted.

it's the whole reason why we spend DAILY time with God.
Because it's like looking into His light
into all that He is, into who He is.
If you want to be more passionate, to do more stuff for God, to be more than just a weekend Christian,
spend daily time with God!
Because when you look at the light
the afterimage remains
and for a while everything else you look at gets tinged with that same image
that purple after-colour of the light
If you daily look into the light that is God
You're gonna start seeing Him in everything you do
When you're sitting in that par-ti-cularly boring math class
when you're mugging at home
when you're watching The Time Traveler's Wife (which I do want to, btw)
You're gonna be more conscious of Him
of His presence that never ever ever leaves your side

and believe me, it's going to change the way you live your life.

So make sure you spend some time looking into the light
and you won't forget who God is in anything you do
Even when you're during an interview ("Do you do any other dance moves than the robot? Have you ever thought of growing 'fun-hair'?")

I keyed in my blog into wordle.net (a fun hobby for a word-fanatic like me)
and this was what I got
