There is SO MUCH in Scripture about “light.” How, in the beginning, God Almighty, the God of the Universe, He SPOKE, and there was light. He said “let there be light” and there it was. Four little words and the universe lit up. And He separated the light from the darkness.
Those billions upon billions upon billions of stars in the sky? He counts them and calls them by name.
“Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of His great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.” Isaiah 40:26
“He counts the stars and calls them all by name. How great is our Lord! His power is absolute! His understanding is beyond comprehension!” Psalm 147:4-5
The constellations we can see when we know where to look? A few are actually mentioned in Scripture:
“It is God who made the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades and the groups of stars in the southern sky. He does wonders that cannot be understood; He does so many miracles they cannot be counted.” Job 9:9-10
Then, He sent His son to be the Light of the World.
“The Word gave life to everything that was created, and His life brought light to everyone.” John 1:4
And that light? That light is in you too!
“For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.” 2 Corinthians 4:6
At (in)courage, I see God’s light shining through your hearts in the words you write in this space, as you encourage and love your sisters in Christ. I hope our new Everlasting Light collection, these beautiful pieces of jewelry (all made in the USA) that you’ve seen in the photos, can serve as a small reminder of the great and powerful God we serve.
His light surrounds us, His light is in us, and it brings life.
Keep shining His light, sisters! YOU are making a difference!

Isaiah 60:1-3 “Arise, shine, for your light has come,
and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
See, darkness covers the earth
and thick darkness is over the peoples,
but the Lord rises upon you
and his glory appears over you.
Nations will come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your dawn.”
One of my favorite passages cherished to my heart. It’s the glory of the Lord in us that makes us shine. Just as the heavens declare His glory, so should we! The shimmer layered necklace speaks this passage. Hundreds of lives coming together to bring the glory of the Lord to this darkened world. King of heaven come, shine Your light in our lives that we may dispel the great darkness! Amen!
Katie Matzenbacher says
Love that verse. It’s one of our foundational scriptures for another part of this collection – coming soon! Can’t wait to share it too!!
Paulette says
My favorite passage is Psalm 27..The Lord is my light and my salvation.. I really like these pieces with all the sparkles all lit up. I like the one that says “Shine” your light. It speaks to me as if God is telling me to do that. Thanks for sharing☺

I adore this collection! My favorite’s out of it are the “shine” and “constellation” necklaces. I’m so glad these were made in the USA to! I first saw the Everlasting Light collection in one of the product launch emails and loved it from the beginning. =)

I love ALL the pieces but I think my fave is the layered shimmery necklace. I saved this email yesterday. I have a birthday in a week and would LOVE one of these pieces! (Too bad I don’t have a special dude in my life to get it for me)
Cynthia says
Gorgeous….LOVE! (Especially the “shine” bar!)
Lina says
I really like the “shine” necklace and my favorite verse is simply “Let there by Light” that would be cool to see on a jewelry item. Hint. Hint. =)
Keep up the good work of shining light into all the dark areas of our souls so that we can shine bright in this world.
Best,
Lina
Debbie J. says
I like the third one, the one with the verse from Job. Striking!!! Beautiful.
Beth Williams says
I love the jewelry. It all looks pretty and very inspirational. My favorite song is
“This Little Light of Mine”. Talks about not hiding our light under tables, bushes, etc. but out there for all the world to see! This sin crazed world needs more light and much less dark!
