Wednesday
Read 2 Corinthians 3:12-4:2
12 Because we have this hope, we are
very bold. 13We are not like Moses, who had to put a veil over his
face so that the people of Israel would not see the brightness fade and
disappear. 14Their minds, indeed, were closed; and to this very day
their minds are covered with the same veil as they read the books of the old
covenant. The veil is removed only when a person is joined to Christ. 15Even
today, whenever they read the Law of Moses, the veil still covers their minds. 16But
it can be removed, as the scripture says about Moses: “His veil was removed
when he turned to the Lord.”c 17Now, “the Lord” in this
passage is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is present, there is
freedom. 18All of us, then, reflect the glory of the Lord with
uncovered faces; and that same glory, coming from the Lord, who is the Spirit,
transforms us into his likeness in an ever greater degree of glory.
4 God in his mercy has given us this work to do,
and so we are not discouraged. 2We put aside all secret and shameful
deeds; we do not act with deceit, nor do we falsify the word of God. In the
full light of truth we live in God’s sight and try to commend ourselves to
everyone’s good conscience.
Think
...that same glory, coming from the Lord, who is the Spirit, transforms us
into his likeness in an ever greater degree of glory.
- 2 Corinthians 3:18
Pray
Lord let your light shine through me despite my failures and faults.
