"The Efeects are Far-reaching and Continue to Work in us."

I saw his face from across
the room and our eyes met
He looked as though he had
seen a ghost and although
he looked frightened he
continued to move curiously
and reverentially closer

We worked together but I
couldn't blame him because
the evening before with the
Lord I had met
I knew that the transparency
of my face displayed something
otherworldly and out of time
and place, at least for now

But finally as I worked he
approached and sat with an awe-
struck and humble look on his
face as intently at me he looked
And now what could I do, I had
now become responsible because
he had taken his heart out and
put it in my hand, I could feel
it beating and felt one with him
And internally, I wept

So then we talked as friends and
there was also One among us who
was closer than a brother
The Presence of a Peace so Tangible
was in the room and I could see on
his face that he felt it too
It was probably a needed rest for
him because I bet that it had been
a long time since he felt this way

I could not refrain myself from
telling His Eternal story because I
had stood in His Presence and beheld
His Glory
As I beheld His Beautiful face my heart
opened-up and a light filled the room
around me casting-out all the darkness
and doubt

I've looked-on the face of the King of
Glory and His Spirit caused me to live
once again
I felt a strength enter into my soul
like energy and power and it restored my
soul and renewed my youth
And the effects of an encounter with Him
are far-reaching because even after we
leave His Temple we are still being changed
and do not know what He will make us to be
but we are confident of this very thing, that
he which hath begun a good work in you will
perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

The Beloved Apostle Paul, (May he forever
enjoy the Presence of the Lord as in all
his Epistles he always expressed a desire
to be with), said, "But we all, with open face
beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord,
are changed into the same image from glory to
glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."

He knew that the effects of the Lord's Presence
continued to work in us and change us into its
Likeness, even as the Father said, "Let us make
man in our Likeness and in our Image," even
after we departed from Its Presence
But we have to come back before it and continue
to present ourselves to it because we know that
we have not an high priest which cannot be touched
with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in
all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of
grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace
to help in time of need.


Revelation 21:3 3And I heard a great voice out of
heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is
with men, and he will dwell with them, and they
shall be his people, and God himself shall be with
them, and be their God. 4And God shall wipe away
all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no
more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither
shall there be any more pain: for the former things
are passed away.
