Read Revelation 4:6-8.
Our imaginations cannot conceive of this glorious sight! As I meditate on John’s description, I am taken aback by the holiness of God. And even then I know that no matter how magnificent a picture is generated in my mind, it still falls far short of reality. Despite that, filling my mind with the thought brings a certain strength as I enter a new day.
Take some time today and reflect on this passage, and then read Ezekiel 1:4-28. I know you’re busy, and slowing down for 10 minutes might seem impossible, but do it anyway! Allow the real presence of God to fill your mind. This is nothing mystical, simply getting our minds and attitudes on that which is perfect and good.
And when you have gotten your mind at ease, consider worshiping Him, giving Him glory and honor and thanks for all the goodness Consider this great hymn of faith:
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,
Who was, and is, and evermore shall be.
Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see;
Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity.
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All Thy works shall praise Thy Name, in earth, and sky, and sea;
Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
