We’ve all been driving at one point, where we’ve glanced in the mirror, thinking we have plenty of space to come over, in the other lane, only to get honked at…
Because the objects in our mirror were closer than they appeared.
Just me? Ok.
But let’s take that to the Spirit realm.
“Mary arrived back at the tomb, broken and sobbing. She stooped to peer inside, and through her tears she saw two angels in dazzling white robes, sitting where Jesus’ body had been laid—one at the head and one at the feet! “Dear woman, why are you crying?” they asked. Mary answered, “They have taken away my Lord, and I don’t know where they’ve laid him.” Then she turned around to leave, and there was Jesus standing in front of her, but she didn’t realize that it was him!”
John 20:11-14 TPT
Mary was coming over into the wrong lane of thinking!
My Spirit is set ablaze right now with this understanding.
As His church, standing in this moment, like Mary, we see Jesus off somewhere in the distance.
Everything His encompasses, we see far off in Heaven.
Sobbing and broken, we pray.
But look at this passage-
And See it as a mirror for your own life.
You’re His disciple.
No different than Mary.
And He, Jesus, is nearer to you than He appears.
I want us to just linger here, as long as it takes, meditating this reality,
Until we’re moved to stir others with this same Revelation.
