Father, sometimes rejection must be fierce, with hardheartedness… but this morning we gently and politely say “No, thank you” to the world’s invitation to accept and indulge in its ‘delicacies’, the pursuit and enjoyment of its “pleasant promises”.
The sun rises. Your glory silently explodes from below the entire width of the horizon’s line… from below that line… brilliant, burning, fiery, orange red, across the morning sky above.
“For ever since the creation of the universe, Your invisible qualities- both Your eternal power and Your divine nature- have been clearly seen, because they can be understood from what You have made…”
The light- a hint, a taste, of Your actual grandness, Your power and beauty…
Such a spectacle filling our eyes speaks of a Source…
The Source from whom all things are imagined… in Your mind imagined, then crafted and offered to us.
Father, create in us… nurture in us the capacity to be truly awed by the visual of Your imaginings… from there to see beyond them to You who does marvelous things. May we find ourselves incredibly humbled, fearful… swollen with love for the One who takes pleasure in satisfying and blessing the invisible inhabitant within these physical bodies, our spirits, that part of our bodies which must be fed but with food that worldly bread cannot provide.
Give us eyes, Father, to see the invisible within the visible You have created… see You who are all-powerful, divine, beautiful and loving.
May our invisible reality be touched and satisfied… by Yours.
Thank You, Father, for Your delicacies… for the pleasure of what You offer.
In Yeshua’s name we give thanks and pray…
Amen.
Romans 1:20 CJB
