16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 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.
I like this. But, I have to be honest. Sometimes I don't feel like I'm still being transformed. I still struggle. What does that mean?
I do think this is an extension of the what we've been talking about for the last couple of chapters, in that if we have God....others should see it. We shouldn't hide it.

ReplyDeleteI was in the same territory as you. I agree, I'm 48 and I believe! But how much am I really changing and if its not much what does it say about my relationship or lack of relationship with God. If I am spending time with him and encountering him it should show to others, I can't say I'm confident that it does.
