Look at this photo. What do you see?
Many years ago, a co-worker at the Department of Defense had cross-stitched this gift for me. What do you see? she asked, watching my face as I studied the unusual sign, trying my best to figure it out.
Honestly it meant nothing. A strange code of cryptic symbols. But Justine smiled, reassuring to keep looking. I would get it. And, she was right. Aha! With a slight shift in my perception, the precious name JESUS appeared as bold as it could be. I wondered how I could have missed it.
It's all about perception... Our five senses are deceivers.
For years, Justine's red-and-white Jesus sign hung on my closet door knob. My life was going through a major overhaul. On occasion, it caught my eye as I hurried to dress for work. But I noticed something strange. At certain times JESUS readily appeared while at other times, I couldn't make it happen no matter how I turned my head or blinked my eyes. JESUS was not in the picture.
But the good news is that CHRIST is always present. Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow, no matter how we look at it. Divine Love is changeless.
May you feel the peace of Christ today.
Love and joyful blessings,
Rae Karen
