Ever use one of those magnification mirrors? Man, I looked in one recently and was scared! All my blocked pores, grayness of beard, etc were magnified. That's the way it is with us humans. The closer you look, the worse it gets!
Last night during worship at our church prayer, we sang an old one, "I exalt Thee." I was reminded of this magnifying glass. The difference with God is that the closer you get to Him, and the more you magnify Him, the more His excellent qualities come through. Just think of it! When we exalt Him, we magnify His mercy, His faithfulness, His unconditional love, His grace. Only God looks better up close.
Looking forward to Resurrection Day as we magnify Him together...
