Reading Time: 2 minutes
This morning, I read the following verses, and smiled:
Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls. (1 Peter 1:8-9, emphasis mine)
I didn’t smile because I’ve arrived at the conclusion of the matter, but because I am more aware now than I’ve ever been that I am arriving.
I am being filled with a joy that I find increasingly hard to explain. It isn’t a head in the sand, or a pie in the sky type of joy, like seemingly happy because I’ve closed my eyes tightly and refuse to see the bad stuff.
