Description
I painted this soft pastel after I became overwhelmed by the Lord's presence one morning while I was in the bathroom fixing my hair and about to put on my make-up. Quite unexpectedly He began to speak a word into my spirit. "My beloved bride, I will lift the veil from your eyes so that you can see My face and know My heart"!
Immediately I was totally undone. The tears began rolling down my cheeks as I sensed the sweet presence of the Holy Spirit. A picture came to my mind of Jesus lifting the veil from our eyes so that we can know Him face to face! He wants us to look into His eyes with no veil between us so that we can see His heart. He wants us to see the glory of God in His face!
Then the Spirit directed me to use a image of myself for the bride in this picture, because it was taken at a time in my life when I was very broken. But in spite of my brokenness I was still His bride whom He cherished and held close to His heart!
I believe God gave me this word picture because some of us don't know how much He loves and cherishes us. He wants to make us radiant in His love. Some of us don't yet know that we are His priceless treasure! That's why we keep trying to do what we think is necessary so He will accept us.
But He already accepts us. He already has purchased us with His blood. We belong to Him. He sees us forever as His first love! He will never change His mind about us, and there's nothing we can do to make Him change His mind, because the tenderness God has in His heart towards you and I is profound! Listen as He speaks to your heart today!♥
