In a recent Facebook post Darla Dixon, creator of My Snellville Blog, used a phrase which immediately caught my attention. She wrote of being "dazzled by God", and immediately my mind was racing. I just love that word..."dazzle". It brings up images of so many things that I enjoy. Radiant sunshine is dazzling. Bright, warm smiles are dazzling. 4th of July fireworks are dazzling. Amazingly enough, though, I had never really thought of God as dazzling. I don't know why, though. Now that I have heard the phrase, I can't seem to think of a better way to describe Him! I love to be dazzled by a spectacular rainbow or a breathtaking sunset. The birth of a child or the healing of a loved one are indescribably dazzling experiences. What I really, really, love, though, is the way God dazzles me through his presence and attention to detail in our lives every single day.
Those of us who have the pleasure of working with 5-2 Ministry know what it's like to be dazzled through these everyday experiences. Every time we turn around there is a new story to share about God's provision and his perfect timing! There have been times of plenty and times of want as we strive to provide food for the hungry, but during all of these times God has never failed to dazzle with his unfailing love.
How have you been dazzled today?
