Reba's Story:  I had a dream many years ago.  I was trying to wade out in the deep ocean (which represented wading out into the deep with the Lord.)  I was trying to literally pull many members of my family along with me, and I was miring up near the shore unable to move out very deep.  God told me to let go of them and go on out deeper, and they would follow.  God brought the dream back to my memory.  So I decided to go as deep with the Lord as I could through fasting, praying, giving and getting more active in my church.  God is faithful to fulfill His Word.  (The crowd I was dragging was much larger than my family at the time - only four children.  Today there are four children, their wives and husbands, eight grandchildren, and their mates, and thirteen great-grandchildren.  Now it's beginning to look more like the crowd I was trying to pull along with me, but I'm not hanging back.  They will have to swim fast to keep up.)  I'm seeing more of the glory of God as I spend more and more time in His Presence.  That is the secret - As we spend time with Him we take on His attributes:  LOVE, LIGHT (Revelation) and LIFE - more abundantly everyday.  His glory is manifested through signs and wonders - which are seen daily everywhere I look, including many resurrections from the dead - many healings - plus seemingly impossible things, like gold dust, jewels and money appearing...  He is the creator of those things.  You enter into His presence through praising and worshiping Him.  Psalms 100:4
