Lessons from the Fog

There is some really thick fog here in the mountains this morning. So thick, in fact, that earlier this morning I could barely see the trees right in front of my house! It's a little clearer now. Looking at that dense fog brought a Scripture passage to mind.....some verses in 1 Corinthians chapter 13. In "The Message" it reads this way: " We don't yet see things clearly. We're squinting in a fog, peering through a mist. But it won't be long before the weather clears and the sun shines bright! We'll see it all then, see it all as clearly as God sees us, knowing him directly just as he knows us."

And thinking about that passage brought an old gospel song to mind......."What a day that will be, when my Jesus I shall see......" What a day indeed!! And thinking about that brightens this otherwise very gloomy day considerably!!
