There comes many times in my life when I find myself with unexplained emotion. Whether that may be frustration, sadness, pure joy or true thankfulness.
It was only this morning when I found myself welling up for unknown reasons. It could have been for one of the emotions above or because of the many. It may have even been for something not explained by emotion.
When one hears a good piece of music, unexplained things may occur in the human mind. Hans Christian Andersen once said "Where words fail, music speaks". You can connect deeply with a piece of music and that piece of music may seem to explain exactly what you mean.
Although it was during a time of music this morning that I welled up, it was not because of the music. In a similar way that music may move some, it is the presence of God that moves mountains; and I believe that it was that presence that moved me this morning.
For unknown reasons, God wanted to meet me this morning. My only guess is, that he loves me more dearly than I could ever imagine, that he wanted to be with me more presently than I could have expected. God is always with me and I with him, however on occasion he needs to remind me he is there.
The frustration, the sadness, the confusion all disappeared at this moment, for love as pure as he is, casts out every fear I could have; because perfect love casts out all fear. I am thankful for that moment among many in my life, because I am blessed to know God and feel even more blessed that he knows me better than I know myself.
Thank you Lord.
