God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow ... And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2:9-11

The Great Mystery That Was Hidden Now Revealed

The great mystery!

The great secret hidden away from the beginning of time.

The unsearchable reality waiting for the right time to be revealed.

A seed hidden away, yet fully grown at the same time.

A tree waiting to extend himself throughout the world.

The river of life waiting to be drinken up and spilled over to others.

A single purpose in an all-knowing being.

The groom in union with His bride.

The master gardener, yet being the fruit.

As close as can be, still seemingly distant at times.

Filled with sufferings and willing to share them with us.

A walled garden, yet open-hearted.

Rejected by most but still willing to woo us in him.

Hated but still pouring out His love.

Humble beyond imagination.

He is Christ within us, the hope of glory!
