Awesomeness of God will surpass all understanding. Knowing
God face to face. How will our attitude change when we come face to face with
God?
The word "awesome" is used often. But, I cant'
think of a higher thought, attitude, or feeling that expresses the thought of
coming face to face with our creator. Our concerns would change in a moment.
His thoughts are higher than our thoughts, His ideas higher than ours. Isaiah
55:9, says: "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways
higher than you ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."
We are supposed to be preparing ourselves in this life for
the next life. It is said that the next life is a continuation of this one. Having
a relationship with God will lead us to preparing ourselves for that meeting
that will surely cause us to be in awe of our heavenly Father. Only knowing
Jesus can prepare us for this encounter. It will bring that peace and awesomeness
that passes all understanding.
Too often we become so familiar with Jesus we forget he
represents God in human form. As John the Baptist said in John 1:26, "I
baptize with water but, there is one who comes after me whose thongs I am
unworthy to tie." (NIV) If John knew him intimately and stood in awe of
him how much more we need to learn of him and be in awe of him.
