So Much More To Discover
For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. --- 1 Corinthians 13:12
When you decide to follow Jesus Christ, you begin what will be the better and most wonderful version of your life's journey. You might ask, "What other version is there?" There is also the journey you choose to live on your own terms without the companionship of God. There is not much in that to entice you with, unless you prefer bad company, wrong choices, lots of trouble, and a liar (SataN) who will take pleasure in helping you make a fool of yourself (but that's a blog for a different day)! Let's see, where were we? Oh, yes! The decision to travel your life's journey with Jesus is filled with discoveries about yourself and about God. What you think you know about yourself will get lost in the teeming revelations of self that you will explore. Believe me when I tell you there is so much more to you than you realize! And as for God, apart from His nature that surrounds you, His nature in you, His spoken Word in the scriptures, and His Son - Jesus - for Whom you chose to follow - you will discover that God will forever be a great mystery Whom you will never be able to fully explain or ever contain within your human understanding. But the glory of your life's journey with Jesus is this: You will most definitely discover through joys and sorrows that God absolutely loves you, He is your Heavenly Father and Friend, and He will always be here with you unto the day He calls you to your Eternal home!
