4/04/20 BLOW AWAY THE CHAFF

 

VISION:  I saw a bridal veil flying in the wind. The wind was strong enough for the veil to blow horizontally.  I watched it moving up and down.

 

2 Corinthians 3:14-18 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remains the same veil not taken away in the reading of the old covenant; which veil is done away in Christ. 15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their hearts. 16 Nevertheless when one shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. 17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

 

The veil represents a layer or barrier between the bride and groom.  Usually she walks down the aisle towards him covered, and when they meet face to face he lifts the veil from her face before they continue with the ceremony.

 

Today I had some unusual thoughts about seeing the veil blowing.  It reminded me to chaff blowing in the wind and I suddenly thought of women whose hair is growing grey because they aren’t able to get hair dye during the pandemic.  And those who are stuck at home and are taking a break from wearing makeup and work clothes.  All the women whose nails are losing their perfect manicures and all the men whose hair is growing shabby!  Smiles.

 

I thought those were odd thoughts to think regarding the bridal veil and then I realized how much people wear masks.  It is as though the masks are being stripped away and people are becoming real. They are facing their raw, naked selves and what really matters in life is being known.  For some it is a wakeup call.  For some it is precious family time.  For some it is a time to rest, relax and become still before the Lord.

 

1 Corinthians 13:11-13 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 13 And now abides faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
