Three of Wands
Enveloped in golden light, this powerful visionary can see far. He stands with his back to us, unconcerned with what is behind. He looks to the horizon. Whether the ships are going out or coming in, he looks ahead.
There is a future for a person of peace.
"I know the plans that I have for you," says the LORD, "plans to prosper and not to harm, plans to give you a future and a hope."
The LORD answered Habakkuk,
“Write the vision; make it plain on tablets,
so he may run who reads it.
For still the vision awaits its appointed time;
it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
If it seems slow, wait for it;
it will surely come; it will not delay."
Paul had a vision of a man of Macedonia calling for help although the fulfillment was actually a woman called Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth, who welcomed the church in her home.
Moses saw the Promised land but did not cross over. Abraham looked forward to the City of God, but only together with us will he enter in.
He believed God who calls those things that are not as though they are.
Open the eyes of my heart, LORD! Let me see with your eyes!
