SHORT OF VISION? CLIMB THE NEAREST TREE

There is a lot of talk about Vision in the church world around the first of the year. What we mean by Vision is the ability to see down the road, as they say, and try to describe our destination. If you're behind the wheel of a speeding automobile, Vision is essential to getting to your intended target. A sudden fog bank will affect your journey because you will have lost your Vision.
If you happen to be journeying through the countryside and want to know what is ahead, you must find some high ground to see better.
We could say the higher you go, the farther you can see.
Take, for instance, the story of Zacchaeus. The scriptures tell us he was a short man trying to see Jesus as he passed. What did he do? He went higher, found the nearest tree, and climbed it. From that extended height, he could see Jesus; but most importantly, Jesus could see him. Something about going higher in the things that God loves, including his presence, gets his attention. You know, at the end of the story with Zacchaeus, he enjoyed lunch with Jesus.
We could say that Vision is a revelation of Jesus Christ and his plans for us in our future. To get this revelation, we must go higher into his presence and listen to his wisdom and direction for our lives.
Unfortunately, we seem content with having someone do it for us, then tell us what they saw and heard. That's what happens on most Sunday morning church services where hopefully, the speaker has gone to the mountain and listened to God. Then like, Moses, who was on the mountain, comes down and tells the congregation what God has in mind.
How unfortunate for the Israelites because they were all invited up the mountain to hear from God. But when they got close to the mountain, they became afraid, and they sent Moses up in their place.
Don't you think it's time for you to find the nearest tree or a mountain( or a prayer closet) and go higher and hear his voice for yourself?
I do.
