Have you ever just stepped out into the beauty of this world and been truly overwhelmed by it? Sometimes I find it breath-taking. The brilliance of a huge white cloud on a canvas of pure blue. It seems to be frozen in time and I'm frozen in that moment with it. I find myself searching for the face of the Creator.
What the Garden must have been like! Peace, beauty beyond anything we've seen. To walk in the cool of the evening & commune with our God. Sometimes I feel I have a glimpse - just a glimpse - of the peace that was there before evil abounded.
But Evil did enter and things were not as clear as before. Our view of God's promises became obscured by the weight of our sins. Death invaded our world. Even then the Light beckoned us to focus on Him. Oh, but it's so much harder to find when Evil goes before.
The day will come when, like the rays of the sun breaking behind the cloud, His love will break through the darkness we've become. Be ready when the Light breaks.
Until that glorious day arrives, give praise to Elohiym! Hold on to the beauty of it all; for now, it's all we have.
