This is the way a vision or a revelation works too.
In a real sense, even meditation is beginning with the end in mind. Here's why: Simply put, through meditation we move into the finished work of Christ. We experience that place of rest and peace Hebrews talks about. That rest in God.
Guess what? That's the whole purpose of meditation for the Believer. Workaholics, Legal Eagles and Gatekeepers hate this. But I've got to tell you.
From this position, this place of rest, this vision of God, we work our way back, or better yet, we work out what we've experienced.
We work out what God has worked in us. It's restful, it's transformational, but the world wants to kill it. Why? Because it reveals Jesus and his finished work on the cross.
So what works for you? Does singing bring you into the presence of God? or worship? or reading the Scripture? or a walk in the woods? Raising your kids? Teaching? Serving other people? What do you do, that brings transcendence up into your life? Those mystical moments. Whatever it is, that's your work of grace.
That is what you were put on this earth to do. That is how love expresses itself best through you.
You are meant for so much more than you can possibly imagine.
