Through the Veil

It is difficult to grasp what is real. Oh, this world is real enough. It captures our attention & we will never learn all there is to know about it. It takes our breath away & also frustrates the life out of us. What's puzzling is how that God who made it all, sustains it and grants life to it (and us) must surely be more real than that which he creates. He can go unseen by us, even though He often feels like He is just beyond the veil. It seems that way because He sometimes seems so present and touchable and captivating ours. Those experiences stay with us in a way that makes us realize that He doesn't change or go away, we just focus our attention somewhere else. That's when we realize that we could speak to Him through the veil and discover how near He is. I long for the day when I learn how to turn to Him more readily. I want to be able to delight in hanging out with Him when that old familiar, I don't really want to do anything attitude appears and makes it seem like I don't even want to hang out with God. It's always a lie, by the way. He is everything, our Abba, Jesus, Yahweh, Savior, Lord. In Him we have life & peace & love & joy. But only when we're with Him. Remember, no matter how life seems right now, we can always speak to Him through the veil.
