New year to try new things.

MOLESKIN

signed up for Yoga, something I have never done before. I hate stretching but need to try something different because what I am doing now is not working! That’s just one thing I am trying that is new to me but not going to hold back on any new and different opportunities. Having said that, SHOUT out to BAGGER and SPOTTER for trying new things, posting at the BURBS! I think Bagger may have been a little apprehensive on posting at the burbs. Well, I can tell you Spotter and Bagger held there own. I think they realized perception is not always reality and you never know until you try something new. They both kicked ass and glad they stepped out of their normal AO to try something new. Yep, guilty of this too. Most of the reasons I hold back or elect not to do, is not believing that I can do it. Not something I want to do anymore, hold back on expanding my horizons, so to speak. Today was a great day and looking forward to tomorrow!

Q shared his New Year’s resolution – to spend a year studying God’s character and trying to mimic Him in his daily walk.  He then shared the following excerpt from an article he researched on God’s invisibility…..

LIKE MY PAY CHECK THESE DAYS, WHY DOES GOD REMAIN INVISIBLE?

I don’t think there’s anything that makes living the Christian life more difficult than the fact that the Lord we serve is invisible to us. You know the expression in our culture “Out of sight, out of mind.” It’s very, very difficult to live your life dedicated to someone or something you cannot see. Often you hear people say that when they can see it, taste it, touch it, or smell it, they’ll believe and embrace it, but not before. This is one of the most difficult problems of the Christian life: God is rarely perceived through our physical senses.

On the other side of the coin, I would say that one of the greatest hopes set before the Christian church is the promise in the book of John, “Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is” (1 John 3:2). The Latin there means “as he is in himself.” That is to say, that which is totally concealed from our eyes right now we will see in heaven.

Scriptures tell us uniformly that no person shall see God and live; this is because God is holy, and we are not (see Exod. 33:20 and 1 Tim. 6:15). Even Moses, as righteous as he was, pleaded with God on the mountain to let him have an unveiled look at God’s glory. God only allowed him to catch a refracted glimpse, but he said to Moses, “My face shall not be seen.” Why is that? The problem is not with our eyes but with our hearts.

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus made the promise that someday a certain group of people would see God. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Those who hunger and thirst shall be filled. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. It’s because we’re not pure in heart that God remains invisible, and only when we’re purified will we see him.  This can only happen thru faith in Christ.
