Those
Moments of Magnificent Knowledge
There
are times in our spiritual journey when questions so long burning in our heart
about God are answered in a twinkle of an eye. With brilliance and magnificence
one realizes it can only be from God. It’s a treasured moment, an epiphany of
such clarity you are you simply amazed by God’s timing, His goodness, wisdom
and love.
“My heart is confident in you, O God; no wonder I can sing your praises
with all my heart! Wake up, lyre and harp! I will wake the dawn with my song. I
will thank you LORD, among all the people. I will sing your praises among the
nations. For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens. Your faithfulness
reaches to the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May our
glory sine over all the earth.” Psalm 108 1-5
Watch
for it—wait for it—those moments of magnificent knowledge of God’s character. Oh
the joy of such a great and unexpected discovery! The instant when Love comes
down and comforts and clarity brings strength and one’s heart is filled with
eternal hope.
It
can be in the midst of a busy day or the other side of sleep just before we
awaken. It can be when reading God’s Word, or a song, a time alone with Him. God
is able to surprise us at any moment with the beauty of who He is. He alone can
heal a broken heart; bring streams in the desert and flowers of hope to bloom
all over again in our heart.
“….I
learned at last that Christ was the “express image” of God, and where I became
therefore in measure acquainted with Him, and discovered to my amazement and
delight His utter unselfishness, and saw it was safe to trust in Him. And from
this time all my doubts and questioning have been slowly disappearing in the blaze
of this magnificent knowledge.” Quoted from: Hannah Whitall Smith The Unselfishness of God
