2 Corinthians 3:3,18, 4:5-9

Dear Jesus, May my life be a living letter declaring your glory! Amen!

(2 Corinthians 3:3) Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.

This is such a rich, powerful scripture, I wish I could get a better quality photo for you, but let the words speak for themselves.  It reminds me of 1 Corinthians 13:12 ( https://thankful-julie.blogspot.com/2025/03/1-corinthians-1312.html )that states we see this life through a glass darkly.  Here Paul says we see the glory of the Lord as in a glass because we can never fully see the complete glory of Jesus until we get to Heaven.  We are to be changed from glory to glory, which means we are not to stay the same, but continually grow in our walk with the Lord. 

(2 Corinthians 3:18) But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

(2 Corinthians 4:5-7) For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. 

For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

(2 Corinthians 4:8-9) We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.

AMEN!!!
