The Lesson of the Steamed Over Window
I see the rivulets running down the outside of the window from the moisture covering the window’s surface. I cannot wipe the moisture away, it is outside.
As I look out the window, I can see shapes and colors, but everything is indistinct and blurred.By stepping out of the room and going outside – the scene is the same… but what a difference!
Everything is distinct and defined. All the objects are clearly seen.The Hidden Reality
This is like my view of heaven. I know a few facts the LORD God tells me in His Holy word, the Bible.However, I see through my eyes the image of God’s reality which is blurred and indistinct.
Only when I leave this “room” (my physical body which I live in every day of my life)… when I step from this life into the very presence of the LORD God, I will see distinctly. I will see clearly Who He is!The Living Reality
I will worship Him, my LORD and Savior… the living reality of God Himself.He is the reality today, whether I see Him distinctly or not.
That is faith!
(NASB) Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.”
~ Take it to heart ~
(NASB) 1 Corinthians 13:12 “For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known.”
The reality is: my God is waiting for me!
