The Glory


Here is a quote from my friend Paul Francis Lanier from a few years ago. It was lost in the continual flow of Facebook until recently, when Facebook decided to bring it up as a memory. Oh, happy day! I decided to place it on the blog, in the hope of making it easier to find in the future. Paul wrote:
“The Glory removes that and those, who are merely attached to you, from what and who are joined to you. But what is missing isn't seen in the Glory. Adam and Eve weren't naked... they were Clothed in His Glory... only as it lifted from them did they discover their vulnerable selves.  David was naked to Michal, but to those in Worship, David was clothed in the Glory. May our eyes look through the divine lens of His presence, losing nothing. +”

Paul's words are wrapped in Glory. What a revelation! So many times, I have witnessed imperfect brothers and sisters becoming perfect in worship, praise, or service... Now I have a Word... They were clothed in God's Glory!!! Thanks for the teaching, Paul.  I pray that I'm always open to seeing those around me who are clothed in His Glory, and that I always be willing to let God use me... wrapping me in His Glory.

Your brother in Christ,

Dave
