I often sit in my backyard gazebo actively seeking a deeper awareness of God’s loving presence in the moment.
One early morning, sitting in the gazebo, I was talking with my Heavenly Father, asking Him to visit with me. (There are still so many times I would really appreciate seeing Jesus sitting across from me, eating chocolate chip cookies and having a visit like I have with my other friends.) I was going over the issues in my mind, giving them to Him, asking for wisdom and guidance as the day continued to unfold.
Finally, when my mind was able to be quiet and my body still, the Lord gave me this vision:
I had always pictured myself running to my Father when I needed comfort. He would wrap His arms around me and hold me close, allowing me to rest in His loving care, feeling His majestic strength, and knowing He is my refuge. His appearance, in my human mind, was maybe a bit like a devout patriarch, like Moses.
The Lord gave me these words: “I’m bigger than that.”
Immediately, I was given a vision of a huge, loving cloud-like entity that I knew to be God, my Heavenly Father. He was showing me quite clearly that His love is so much greater than the human love I know and His presence, His being, is all-encompassing, not able to be contained, but continuing on forever and ever, eternally.
When I say God is awesome, I mean it, but the word itself is not able to convey the ultimate power, the limitlessness, the eternal sovereignty of our mighty God.
To know that we are loved and called beloved by our Heavenly Father is a treasure beyond our human mind’s ability to comprehend.
❤ Yes!!! Six years ago, I had a dream about God, well I believe it to be Him. I only saw from shoulders to stomach. This TOWERING and HUGE Being covered in a long robe, and the robe had patches of different designs and colors all throughout.
