Chapter 3
The "already, not-yet" kingdom of God is "veiled versus visible...The really good news is that in Jesus the new order (His kingdom come) is already among us, but in a veiled, hidden form." That made me think of the spiritual warfare that is going on all around us and yet, we are so blind to it. Then my mind jumped to me...how much of me is veiled to me? God sees me through Jesus blood, pure, the woman I could be here on this earth if I would just completely surrender to him.
Father, your illuminating light is starting to break through the veil around me. Give me the courage to tear back the curtain and let that light shine on me. My "already, not-yet" is more like "not-yet but stretching toward." And most days, "not even close." Thank You for letting this warrior-waif serve in your kingdom-now-and-yet-to come.
