A lovely little display of daisies sat on my kitchen counter.
One morning, as I was walking through the kitchen, I was struck by the shadows the daisies were casting on the counter.
Immediately Hebrews 10:1 came to mind: “… only a shadow of the good things that are coming – not the realities themselves.”
Imagine that you have never seen a daisy before.
The shadows on the counter give an idea of what daisies are like … … but there is so much more!
* The beauty of an early-morning sunrise casting shafts of brilliant sunlight across the delicate white petals of the daisies.
* The beauty of lacy green foliage surrounding the daisies, in a patch of cool shade.
* The beauty of a whole patch full of white & yellow daisies!
* The beauty of buzzing bees actively landing on the daisies.
* The beauty of raindrops resting gently on daisy petals.
In the same way, this is what it’s like when it comes to Heaven. The Bible gives us glimpses … “shadows.” But there is so much more!
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him.” – 1 Corinthians 2:9
