“The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters” (Psalm 29:3 KJV). One evening while sitting with friends in a lovely decorated room adjacent to a mellowing body of water, a friend turned to me and said, “I love a room with a view.” I replied, “I do too.”

As evening drew near, I noticed how the room’s beautiful chandeliers reflected through the windows across the calming water to create an array of shining lights. What a spectacular view I thought! I couldn’t help but think about the glorious view of God when I’m alone in my room with Him. There’s no need for shining chandeliers, because Jesus is the Shining Light. No need for mellowing waters, seeing that He’s the Living Water. No need for wide opened windows, because He’s the window to my soul. No need for fancy decorations, since it’s enough to be alone with Him; He’s my view.

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” (John1:14 KJV).

In God, I will keep on thanking Him for providing such a glorious view of Himself through His Word.
