Place of His Presence

Too busy of a week... a good week... but too busy to thoroughly enjoy what I am created for-- enjoying the place of God's presence.

This is made clear by my lack of posting this week...

But I have been spending my time looking at the Tabernacle... Exodus 25... "a sacred residence where I can live among them."

How awesome to be, as a person, a sacred residence where God desires to fully dwell.

At the heart of the Tabernacle, in the most holy place is the Ark of the Covenant with an atonement cover.

I have found so much to contemplate here, that I can't do it justice at the moment. But the joy of being a sacred residence is that we experience the "meeting." We become "the meeting place":

I will meet with you there and talk to you from above the atonement cover between the gold cherubim that hover over the Ark of the Covenant. From there I will give you my commands for the people of Israel.

This is where the action is... the meeting place... where we enter into fully reality of who God is and who are in Him... and where He speaks to us... our calling, our life, and even what He has for others.

I have such a desire to be that sacred place and to be available for divine meeting encounters.

Your writing on the tabernacle brought to mind a scripture I have always believed to be most powerful,if we are open to receive it.Genesis 40:34The Glory of God,filled the Tabernacle.God,
choosing to dwell with man.Powerful.God bless you.
