The last couple days have been pensive here. No negative happenings spurred the inquisitive and contemplative time…quite contrary actually…my sweet husband has been HUNGRY!
HUNGRY? I know, what can cause so much contemplation? Well..he isn’t hungry physically. He’s hungry for the Truth that is only found in the Word Of God. As he has read and prayed and pondered and wrestled and prayed and read and pondered, I have had such a difficult time reading his expressions and body language. It’s funny how our very countenance is changed by the presence of God.
Just as Moses’ countenance was change after he met with God on the mountain, so is our countenance changed when we earnestly seek and find God.
I am thankful for a husband who still seeks to KNOW the Living God. Who studies “to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15. I also love that he is humble and will be very embarrassed that I wrote such admirable things about him…but they are true.
He is a wonderful example of a husband, father and friend…but He has spurred me to hunger this week as well.
May we all be changed to look more like Christ. May we glow with His presence like Moses so others may wonder and marvel at God’s awesomeness.
Merry Christmas to you all!
Katie
glad to know both of you
