His Majesty

Took a medical leave & slept the whole day as I suffered from sleepless night with food poisoning. Burning sensation took over the body & I kept going to the bath room, flushes out the toxic in my body. I do not know what I ate made me felt so bad though I sanctified any food before I consume with prayer. Spiritual attacks transforming to physical attacks? "My Lord, my God, have you forsaken me..."

Is it the changes around me that terrified me? Changes always brings fear before it brings faith. We always assume the worst before we look for the best. God interrupts our lives with something we've never seen, rather than praise, we panic! That's how I feel around me now with a light dose of anxiety...

I'm so glad that I am able to see God's creation through my eyes as most of us who have lived a lifetime with vision can't really know how wonderful it must be to be given sight. We can live next to something for a lifetime, but unless we take time to focus on it, it doesn't become a part our life. Unless somehow have our blindness lifted, our World is but a black cave...

Think about it. Just because one has witnessed a thousand rainbows doesn't mean he's seen the grandeur of one. One can live near a garden & fail to focus on the splendor of the one. A man can spend a lifetime with a woman & never pause to took into her soul & a person can be all that goodness calls Him to be & still never see the Author of life...

Being honest or moral or even religious doesn't necessarily mean we will see Jesus. No. We may see what others see in Him. Or we may hear what some other say He said. But until we see Him for ourselves, until our own sight is given, we may think we see him, in having in reality seen only a hazy form in the gray semidarkness..

Have you caught a glimpse of His Majesty? A word is placed in a receptive crevice of your heart that causes you, ever so briefly, to see His face. You hear a verse read in tone you'd never heard, or explained in a way you'd never thought, & one more piece of the puzzle falls into place. Someone touches your painful spirit as only one sent from Him could do...and there He is...Jesus, The God who claimed to be older than time & greater than death!

His Majesty. The emperor of Judah. The soaring eagle of eternity. The noble admiral of kingdom. All the splendor of Heaven revealed in a human body just for you & my sins. There is no run-of-the-mill-messiah. He story was extraordinary. He called Himself Divine, yet allowed a minimum-wage Roman soldier to drive a nail into his wrist. He demanded purity, yet stood for the rights of a repentant whore. He called His men to march, yet they refused to allow Him to call Him King. He sent men into all World, yet equipped them with only bended knees & memories of a resurrected carpenter. Oh how great thy Lord...

Has it been a while since you have seen him? If your prayers seem to stale, it probably had. If your faith seems to be trembling, perhaps your vision of Him has blurred. If you can't find power to face your problems, perhaps it is time to face Him. I am fellowshipping with the Lord while I pen down the entry as the Lord our God is always with us:-)

One warning! Something happens to a person who has witnessed His Majesty. He becomes addicted, just like me! One glimpse of the King & you are consumes by a desire to see more of Him & say more about Him. That same Christ will emerge from a wavy figure walking out of desert mirage to become the touchable face of a best friend you can count on, through eternity...
