FULL OF PRAISE
Today's reading: Amos 7-9, Revelation 4:1-5:5, Proverbs 28:17-24

"...Day after day and night after night they keep on saying, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty--the one who always was, who is, and who is still to come.'" Revelation 4:8 NLT

I'm making a mental list of all the things I want to ask God when I get to heaven.

Things like...

-Why did 'this' or 'that' take so long for You to answer?
-How come 'so and so' got a healing but 'so and so' didn't?
-What was it like forming the mountains and the seas?
-How did you know Easter Sunday in 1976 was the day I would respond to Your whisper in my ear?
-What was Job's wife's name?
-Why did You choose for me to go through 'this'?
-Why do You allow bad things to happen to good Christian families?
-How did You tolerate the evil in this world as long as You have?

Like I said, I have a few questions. I'm sure you do, too.

But when we get there...

When we stand before His throne...

When His brilliance overwhelms us...

When His welcome humbles us...

When His grace envelops us...

When His majesty pulses in the very air we breathe in...

When His love heals us...completely...

When His glory and honor drop us to our knees in reverence and honor...

When His perfection leaves us amazed...

When His splendor takes away every question we have...

We will be left with...

Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty!
The One who was!
The One who is!
The One who is still to come!
