Revelation of the Spirit - #26 Changed in the Twinkling of an Eye
When I came home from school today I was feeling quite destroyed by sin. I felt I had just sinned far past forgiveness. My soul was in anguish. I found myself once again praying Psalm 6. How long Lord? I am in agony, have pity on me. When I got a text message from my dearest friend Erin informing she could go to STI (Summer Teen Intensive) at IHOP, which I was planning on attending but I wasn't allowed to go unless I was traveling with someone I knew. Praise God it was an answer to both our prayers. But it was amazing that in " the twinkling of an eye" I was changed. I went from feeling such agony in my soul to feeling the joy of the Lord fill my heart.
1 Corinthians 15:51-52
Listen, I tell you a mystery; We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed--in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.
The Lord is amazing and you must perservere through the suffering. I felt like I was in the truest sense the words, wasting away. I felt as though my sins were eating away at me.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far out weighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
This is the prayer of my heart today. That I would not grow weary and lose heart. Though I may feel as I am wasting away, the Lord renews my strength everyday. These troubles are only momentary and the glory that awaits me in heaven. I fix my eyes on You, Jesus. Heal my broken and weary heart and prepare me for the glory you want to give me. May my life be a living sacrifice.
Amen.
