It seemed like a dream, too good to be true,
when GOD returned Zion’s exiles.
1 CORINTHIANS 13:8, 12 (MSG)
Love never dies. Inspired speech will be over someday; praying in tongues will end; understanding will reach its limit. We know only a portion of the truth, and what we say about God is always incomplete...
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!
SUMMARY SENTENCE
How we relate to God now is incomplete but someday we'll be relating on a level that we can only dream of now.
DAILY FODDER
What do you dream of asking God?
PRAYER
We struggle, God, to take in your loving and generous nature. We can only imagine what it will be like to be more fully in your presence. Prepare us now for what's coming. We want to live eternally confidently in your presence, trusting fully in the sacrifice and life of Jesus. We can only imagine what all that means but we are trusting you to prepare us for the future. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
