For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face.
Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known
1 Corinthians 13:12
This verse is both reassuring and hopeful. Reassuring to know we are fully known by God himself and still loved. He knows our thoughts, our actions, and even what we will think before we think it. He knows our hurts, loves and anxieties. He knows our past and future. We are fully known in every which way by the Creator of the universe and He still loves us completely and provides us a hope for the future. A hope so special that even in the dark of this world, we long for it. We long for a future with Him and He promises that even though that future of eternity looks dim and unwavering like an ancient mirror; it will become clear when we meet Him face to face. The bible gives us glimpses of eternity but one day, we will know fully. And even more special while we are still fully known and loved by Him, we will have the privilege to fully know our Savior as well. We will not be all knowing but know Him completely. That’s what makes Heaven so special. The unhindered, unrestricted presence of our Lord.
Be reminded to rest in His reassuring love and to live for the hope of our future that will one day become our beautiful reality.
