TODAY’S WORD…

.

Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,

[…] that He may teach us His ways

and that we may walk in His paths.

.

– Isaiah 2:3

REFLECTION…

.

The Lord is like a beautiful mountain which you spot from a distance

and which invites You to get closer and even climb up to its top.

.

The closer we get to a mountain

the bigger and more magnificent it gets

…and the smaller we feel in relation to it!

.

That is how it is with the Lord,

the closer we get to Him

the more glorious He becomes in our eyes

and the less significant we feel.

.

Yet, the closer we get to the Lord,

the more we can see, in His eyes, this great love which He has for us,

and the more we can feel

the individual attention and importance which He gives us.

.

Our own love for Him grows

and our ego is transformed into a humble yearning

which drives us ever-closer to the Mountain,

with an inner determination to climb up the paths,

which the Lord has prepared for us to get to the top…

.

.

PRAYER…

.

Lord God, lead me to the top of Your Mountain.
