We don't yet see things clearly.
We're squinting in a fog, peering through a mist.
But it won't be long before the weather clears
and the sun shines bright!
We'll see it all then,
see it all as clearly as God sees us,
knowing him directly
just as he knows us!
But for right now,until that completeness, we have three things to do to lead us toward that consummation:
Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly.
And the best of the three is love.
Of all the things in the world that could frustrate me, one of the biggest things would be that I can't see around the corner. I can't see what's coming for me, or what I'm headed for. But God can. His eyes are so much fuller than mine. As much as I want His eyes, I would never use them like He does. Lovingly.
One day.
