But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery,
the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none
of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have
crucified the Lord of glory. But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear
heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared
for those who love Him. But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit.”
– 1 Corinthians 2.7-10
I like the fact that our faith is forward looking. Yesterday
I looked at the negative aspect so all the stuff that is coming to nothing.
Today is much more encouraging. It is all about the good stuff.
Wen this is all said and done, when all the stuff that is coming
to nothing has indeed come to nothing, things are going to get better. It will
be worth it all.
'Eye has not seen. Ear has not heard. No one has ever
imagined the things that God has prepared for those who love him.'
That tells me that we can't even imagine all that God has
prepared. It is like nothing we have ever seen and nothing we have ever heard
of, at least not with our natural minds.
It is going tbe hard for us to explain to anyone why we do
what we do. It is going to be hard for us to get people excited about something
that they can't even imagine.
But for us our future is assured. The Spirit has opened our
eyes for a glimpse of the future that awaits. Praise God for that hope.
