August 7
And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory.
- 2 Corinthians 3:18, NIV
Do you want to experience real, lasting, God-pleasing change so that you are filled with satisfaction, peace, joy, love, purpose-abundant life? Then don’t look to
a bottle,
a pill,
a therapist,
a once-a-week trip to church,
Look to God’s Word for yourself. Read your Bible every day in order to understand, apply, and obey it.
As we long to grow not only in our faith but in our Christian character so that others can readily see Christ in us, we need to live in the power of the Holy Spirit and in obedience to His Word. This transformation is a continual process that is brought about by daily saturating ourselves in the Scriptures then living it out on the anvil of our experience, until even our friends exclaim, “I see Jesus in you!”
