The sun was bright and my sunglasses Protected my eyes as I drove the two Hours home. But up ahead I suddenly saw a stand of Trees turned yellow, and I quickly removed My dark glasses so I could see the Leaves in all their autumn splendor. As I returned the glasses to my face an Old Bible verse penetrated my Thoughts: "Now I see through a glass darkly, but Then face to face..." * If I caught a glimpse of Jesus now I'd be Struck blind, Like gazing directly into the sun. I must bide my time until He's finished with Me here and be content with the Shadowy images and my limited view. And when I finally see Him in His spendor there I'll Need more than just the shades removed, I'll need totally new eyes too. *I Corinthians 13:12 |
