Why Do I Have a Headache? Online Bible Study
Dark World, Radiant God
Radiant! You look radiant. Do people say that when they see you? Does the glow on your face cause them to comment? If you said no, neither has anyone said that about me. Guess who that is said about, though? Jesus. Hebrews 1:3 describes Him in this way:
“He is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature,…” Hebrews 1:3
The word “radiance” is only used 5 times in the Bible and in each instance refers to God. Commentator Vines defines God’s “radiance” as “shining forth, of a light coming from a luminous body.” Isn’t that exciting? One day we will see Jesus and His radiance. So remember that when things around you are dark, Jesus isn’t. Nothing can extinguish His radiance. One glorious day we’ll join those who are living in God’s radiance. We’ll fall on our knees overwhelmed by what we see. That day is coming when we go to Jesus or when He returns through the clouds. Keep watching and living for Him!
Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus, our hearts are overwhelmed when we think of how we will one day stand in Your radiance. We praise You and look forward to that day!
