Our reading today is 1 Corinthians 13:12
“Now we see but a dim reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face.”
In Exodus 33 Moses asks to see God. He means he wants to actually see God with his eyes. The Lord says, “Yes.” He told Moses there was a place near Him, a rock where he could stand. He covered Moses with His hand, and allowed him to see only His back as His glory passed by.
Before that moment Moses had already done incredible things. He walked into Pharaoh’s throne room because God told him to go. He lifted his staff over the Red Sea because God told him to do it. Every brave step he took was anchored in one simple truth. He trusted the word of God long before he ever saw even the edge of His glory.
We can live the same way. God speaks to us through His written word, and when we follow it with a willing heart, we walk the same path Moses walked. One day like Moses, we will see God with our own eyes. As today’s verse says, “One day we will see Him face to face.”
Wow! Face to Face!I can hardly wait!
