Morning by Morning, January 11 - Unveiled and Embraced Good morning, Lord Jesus. Let Your Spirit burn in my spirit, as I draw near to You and You draw near to me (James 4:8). ... “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:18). Unveil my face as I behold You, Lord -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit of God. Unveil my heart as I draw near to you in worship and prayer, in surrender and trust. Reveal and remove every barrier and blockage that would hinder me from seeing You as You are and seeing myself as You see me. Transform me, change me, make me more like You as I seek You, embrace You, and behold You. As Your Word invites me, “Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always” (1 Chronicles 16:11). “Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the Lord your God” (1 Chronicles 22:19). In seeking, there is finding. In finding, there is beholding. In beholding, there is embracing. In embracing, there is love. There is love because You first loved me (1 John 4:19). And in Your love for me, You are changing me from the inside out “into (Your) image from glory to glory.” It’s not by my might or my power, not by my goodness or worthiness, but by Your Spirit (Zechariah 4:6) -- “just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” I can’t earn it or deserve it. But it’s available to me every time I pursue You and allow You to make me more like You -- morning by morning, moment by moment, “from glory to glory.” As Your Word promises of the destination of my spiritual journey pursuing You: “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure” (1 John 3:1-3). Purify me. Change me. Make me more like You, more and more every day, Lord -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit of God. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
