Today I would like to share a story with you. I have a friend whom I've known for sometime. He works in a warehouse and he told me something that happened to him just recently. He was working as he normally does but this day some people came to install some kind of dock plate or something. Anyway, the thing is that he saw the workers welding the dock plate. As he was watching, the welders told him, "Are you new? Don't stand there and look at the light!" Apparently, while welding something you have to put on a special mask othewise it is guaranteed that you will damage your eyesight. This is what it looks like.
As you can clearly see, the ones who are doing this job are wearing protective masks. When I heard this, the idea came to my mind. This light is so bright and powerful that our eyes cannot handle seeing. Literally, it destroys our vision. At this time I thought about God, Christ Ahn Sahng Hong and Mother Jerusalem.
1 John 1:5 "This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all."
The bible describes God to be light. If such a light from welding, our poor eyes cannot bare to see, how much less our eyes can see the true Light of God our Creator! Always the question comes up, "Why can't I see God?" Well just stop and think. If simple light from welding we cannot handle to see, could we handle the light which comes from God? We would not only go blind, we would probably perish! We cannot come near to the true light of Christ, as the bible says:
