Your eyes will see the King in His beauty; they will see the land that is very far off. (Isaiah 33:17)
There is a phrase in the Word: "Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty;
they shall behold the land of far distances," and that
two-fold statement can quite truly, and rightly, be applied to
Him. He is the King in His beauty; and He is also the Land of Far
Distances.
Now, to come into a living
relationship with the Lord Jesus is to come, sooner or later, to
the impasse of the incomprehensible, and we just have to say:
"Lord, You are beyond me! Lord, I cannot comprehend; You are
too much for me!" That, of course, on the one side, means
difficulties, for it puts us into a difficult position in that we
cannot trace Him, follow Him, and understand Him. But, on the
other side, we would not have it otherwise; we would not
have a 'little' Christ whom we could comprehend and altogether
understand with our little minds. No, He is beyond us altogether,
and what you and I, as His people, are destined to come to if we
go on with Him, is just this: that He is ever reaching farther
and farther beyond us, and drawing us out beyond ourselves,
beyond our resources of mind and will, yet drawing us on, and
making us know that we have got to go on. We just cannot stand
still; we have to go on.
