Unveiled Faces

This piece of scripture goes out to my fellow brothers and sisters who are passionate about their Savior and are always striving to glorify Him... those from Warrenton, those in the Burg, those I've met through this blog, and those elsewhere. I'm so fortunate that I can count the many of you among my blessings.

I came across this today... it's a beautiful exhortation from Paul.
Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold. We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at it while the radiance was fading away. But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

2 Corinthians 3:12-18
Get out there and unveil your face today.

  1. You are such an encouragement to me, brother!! Please pray that the Lord's glory would be revealed in and through me today as I go before some of the most powerful men and women on campus seeking justice. Pray that the Lord would give me His words and that His Word would go forth. Thanks again! You are a blessing!
