It amazes me, awes me beyond my ability to appreciate, the fact that as beautiful as the sanctuary of God’s created universe is, we are now His sanctuary, His tabernacle, each of His disciples individually and collectively as his Church. How can that be?? And yet, He declares it to be so! (1 Corinthians 6:19,20) I don’t understand it, but who am I to argue? Here is another beautiful installment by Niko, (A.K.A. Ancient Skies) that reminds me of this deep and significant truth. Thanks, Niko!!
The Sanctuary
The greatest sanctuary ever created, was never made with human hands
it was never lined with gold, or decorated with diamonds.
It was however, always dressed in green, covered
in blue, with white clouds as decorations
crowned with pine trees, and a river
running through.
And without a doubt the creation teaches me
that every single one of us, was made.
And our treasure lays deep
inside.
