As Jesus brings us into new life, we are made more and more
into His image. Again, sound impossible? The good news beyond believing the
Gospel is that the Holy Spirit immediately sets up residence inside of us!
And you
also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the Gospel of
your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the
promised Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13
When we allow the
Spirit to work, He changes us. That small voice inside that says, “Don’t say
that” or “Let’s not watch that/read that,” or “Send the card,” “Make the phone
call.” The list goes on. When we abide in Christ, when we read the Word, we are
reformed, changed day-by-day.
And we
all, who with unveiled faces, contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being
transformed into His image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the
Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 3:18
More and more into
the image of Christ. More love, more kindness, more humility, more patience.
Let it be said of us.
Lord,
Change us. We want to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit.
Let Him guide us today.
In Jesus name,
Amen
