Lacking Nothing Good  

This life we live for Jesus is a daring life. Every second, we are defying death and its forces and moving ahead in which we are being transformed from one degree of glory to another degree of glory, being conformed to the image of Jesus. Every millisecond we are being one step away from the Earth and getting one more step closer to His throne! Every micro millisecond we are being sifted like the wheat (Luke 22: 31) and tried so brutally in every sphere of our lives because of the everlasting pride of our LORD in which He holds us! Our LORD’s pride in us is something Satan hates the most! Every spur of the moment we understand that we are born to be more alive than ever, we are made in a Maker’s bliss, we are here for a reason… and thus we will keep on going strong, uncompromised…because even when we are in the lion’s den or in the flaming furnace He will be with us, and even if He doesn’t rescue us, we will keep on seeing the unseen and look forward to what lies ahead, and that is because we have learnt to see things through His eyes! And never even in a thought unborn will we defy His trust, even if we defy the whole World! That is when we understand that the thorns that prick our flesh won’t stab our hearts. We live knowing that nothing can separate us from His love. We learn that we will keep moving, no matter what. Because, when we start seeing things in our eyes of faith, when we yearn to feel life in the love of our LORD, we tune our hearts to the heartbeat of Heaven. And nothing can separate us. This bond is our pride, our joy and our strength! So therefore, even when we in this pilgrim life on earth face unbearable hardship, we lose nothing, when we gain it all for the glory of our LORD! We lack nothing good, because our LORD is working everything for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. And we see Him working even when the World says He is not! This is seeing the unseen!
