Why do we have dreams? It sure would be great to understand this inner working of the mind. Why is it that this psychological phenomenon can ruin a perfectly good nap, and well, the next, after waking, hours.
"Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae.  The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm.  Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by itslef but the wrod as a wlohe."

Application 1:  God sees us the same way.  The first "letter" is our sin condition; the last "letter" is our salvation condition. Our life in-between those letters can be a total mess but He can still use us because He sees us as a whole - wholy cleansed; wholy saved.
 

Application 2:  We can see God the same way.  He is the Alpha and the Omega.  He began the world; He is the One True God.  He knows the end of the world.  I may not understand everything that happens in-between, but I can still read God's writing in every situation.  He is Sovereign.
