Are you working hard to seek God? Do you wish you could see
God more clearly? The ancient prophet, Isaiah, had such a hunger as well. When
we read his encounter with the Holy One, we read,
“In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting
upon a throne, high and lifted up…” (Isaiah 6:1).
Before we see God, some things have to die. Jesus reminds of
this: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth
and dies, it remains alone…” (John 12:24).
The reason so many followers of Jesus continue to drop away, as they did
in his day, is that dying is not easy. What has to die in our lives so we can
see God? – Ron Friesen
