Reflection
“For now we see but a faint reflection of riddles and mysteries as though reflected in a mirror, but one day we will see face-to-face. My understanding is incomplete now, but one day I will understand everything, just as everything about me has been fully understood. Until then, there are three things that remain: faith, hope, and love—yet love surpasses them all. So above all else, let love be the beautiful prize for which you run.”
1 Corinthians 13:12-13 TPT
We find answers to this life within every Word that God gives us. We have guidance through the Holy Spirit on how to walk this life out. Not only are we given a map, but we were given the ability to follow it with the power that lives within.
So, yes, this Christian life can be a mystery, but revelation is found in and through Jesus! As we go about life we must look to and cling to the source of life Himself. My advice as you travel this life is found in three words, Faith, Hope and Love. We are told in 1 Corinthians 13:13 that Love is the greatest. Love covers all because love is the sum total of who God is and we can see that through Jesus Christ!
We can find grace in every step we take through faith. Hope is woven in every mysterious unknown and love is the fuel that moves us through it all.
We live this journey out knowing that every day we walk in faith our reflection becomes more and more the image of the glory of God.
We may only see dimly now, but one day we will see the bright completion of Love.
This is best lived out through Faith, with Hope and overcome with Love!
“And without faith living within us it would be impossible to please God. For we come to God in faith knowing that he is real and that he rewards the faith of those who passionately seek him.”
Hebrews 11:6 TPT
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you will abound in hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.”
ROMANS 15:13 AMP
“If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.”
1 Corinthians 13:2 NIV
