THE LIGHT DWELLS WITH HIM

“He reveals deep and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness; and the light dwells with Him,” Daniel 2:22 ESV. Things are never quite as they seem on the surface; they are actually better or worse than we perceive. Our situation in this world is comparable to a quiet, pond. While the sky and surrounding scenery reflect serenely on its surface, underneath it is a different world. One fish is tragically becoming a “happy meal” for another while others are hiding in terror or stalking their next prey while still others sleep. For us, in this world, there are moments of love and happiness, joy and sorrow, prosperity, and poverty. But what we see is not all there is. 1 Corinthians 15:19 reveals, “If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.” My hope and happiness are not derived from what I see, but from “The Light” God has for me now and forever. Open my eyes, LORD, to see Your Glory at all times.
