3 You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
For me this is a reminder that as a Christian God uses me and my life to have an impact on others. This could feel like a little overwhelming, knowing how imperfect I am. But the last verse helps me not to get uptight--
18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[a] the Lord’s glory,are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
So as I read His Word and honestly open up myself to Him He is changing me to be more like Him. This transformation over time is part of the 'letter' my life represents that God can use to impact others.
