God's Eye View
Where has my mind gone? Where has the time gone?I have traded my internet life for a social life... and I am loving life and living it to the fullest!
YWAM is interesting. There are many colors and textures to its character, so many facets to discover, so many fascinating people to connect with. Even the most unscocial individual can find a place in this community, it is grand. Here in my little corner of the world, whcih we like to call YWAM Perth, I have lenared to sit bck and be amazed by the stories and experiences that live in this overlooked part of the world that is Western Australia.
I have become undone. I am slowly being unraveled, each part of me being evaluated in detail, with every crevice being dusted and cleaned. Some parts have needed deep cleaning, others still have a few spots. And although the steel wool brushing against my surface is painful and abrasive, I know that the reflection of God's holiness will be seen all the more clearly against my life. He is worth every growing pain.
My Father is so intricate. I feel as if I am being newly introduced to Him every day. And when I think that I have finally gotten Him figured out, He steps into the light. His glory shining in all fullness, I cannot help but to bow once again. I mean, do we really know God? What does He look like? What does He smell like? How does His voice sound? What are His characteristics, His details, His favorite things? Do we really know God? Have I experienced His reality? I still don't think I have.
As I discover the details of God, I discover the position of my heart and the place where He has intended me to be. God has created each and every one of us in His image. That is a promise and a plan that cannot be reversed. Yet it is my responsibility and my choice as to how much I allow Him to shine through. And I mean really shine through, not through routine or through words or through knowledge, but through my character and my heart and the quiet whisper of my mind, the thoughts that no one can hear.
