a little hope for today
I was reading from Paul's second letter to the church in Corinth (my father-in-law's fav church in the scriptures, btw) when I ran across these words:
...But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.
Now that's what I'm talking about! That's the desire of my heart. I have God's promise that I can see and reflect the glory of God, and that he—God himself!—will make me more and more like him.
Now that's the kind of good stuff that I can sink my teeth into! And the cooler thing is that it's a promise for EVERYONE! There is no age limit, maturity test, personality requirement, family or criminal background check...Paul states that this promise is for "ALL OF US..."
Bring it on, Lord!
