Sunrise
His splendor was like the sunrise;
rays flashed from his hand,
where his power was hidden. Habakkuk 3:4
The sunrise is a very interesting phenomenon to observe. The way total darkness slowly turns into light, until you see the fullness of the sun. The same can be said about our life before we have Christ in it. The darkness can shroud our heart and mind, but until that moment we fully accept Christ, we won't see the shining sun in our heart. As I watch the crest of the sun this morning creep above the horizon, I can see why God provides such a slow and even process, instead of showing everything at once. The splendor is there for us to enjoy and also to remind us that He is in control of the world, the universe and everything He has created. Also, as the sun rises you can look straight at it without it blinding you as it does in the rest of the sky when you observe it, and I honestly think that God allowed this to happen so we can see His glory every single morning, unless it is cloudy. God's glorious creation is something we need to take more time to view and reflect on, for it was created for us to enjoy while here on earth.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
