A Radiant Face

Exodus 34:29
“When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the LORD.”

This morning just before I woke up I had a great dream. I dreamt about the Lord, in the dream I was in a very foggy room and while I was walking around I saw some human-like figures, which I supposed were angels. At that moment, music started to play, a praise song that I used to sing in my church that I had forgotten about. The rhythm was so catchy and exciting that I started to jump and dance for God. I felt deeply happy as I could feel God’s presence.

Right after waking up, I still kept feeling so wonderful and I went to class.
Once there, before starting the Accounting class, one of my classmates complimented me by saying, “Leo, you look great today!” I answered saying “Oh, thank you” I took it as if it were a compliment from God. Considering that I had not done anything special this morning, I wondered why I might appear different today than any other day.

Then it occurred to me I was with the Lord before awakening, and I recalled the story of when Moses’ appearance had changed after being with the Lord on the mountain.
I was doubly happy because someone else noticed that I was overflowing from God’s presence.

Now I think, I would like to always reflect God’s presence in my life. My face usually shows the wear and tear of the day’s hardships, like studying for hours in the library or worrying about tests. However, I would like to have this morning’s face every day.

How is your face lately? Are your eyes and face reflecting sin, weaknesses, anger or weariness?

Let’s spend more time with God, I want to see more radiant faces in Handong students wherever they go; people will surely realize the difference the presence of God makes.
