"As for me, I shall behold Your face in righteousness;I will be satisfied with Your likeness when I awake." Psalm 17:15 (New American Standard Bible - Observation)
{Care for a sneak peak into my life journal? Devotional thoughts and word studies as I read - my tryst thoughts and NOT in depth, inductive study.}
Words I Love (Interpretation):
Behold - #2372 to see, behold, perceive with intelligence, by experience
Face - #6440 face, presence, person
Satisfied - #7646 to be sated, have a desire fulfilled, filled
Likeness - #8544 form, image, representation
Life Lessons (Application):
I will see, gaze, perceive by experience God's person and presence (which is always right); when I awake my desire will be filled, I will be sated with Him.
I seem to always want MORE of Him and yet search for the balance of being content, as well. God promises that as I seek Him, gaze at Him, walk with Him, I WILL see, experience His person, His Presence and His face. My desire will be fully filled. I'll be sated with Him....
My responsibility is to look, to see, to gaze, to behold. Like blind Bartimaeus, my cry is, "Rabbi, I want to regain my sight." (Mark 10:51 NASB)
Choosing Joy!

OK - Link within is cracking me up. I write about Beholding the Face of God and they link to a giraffe's face and Jamin's post wisdom tooth face....
