The Veil

2 corinthians 3:18

There is something about putting thoughts into words, dreams onto paper, and joys into something tangible that is incredibly satisfying. However, it deems nearly impossible to ever complete such a task, because confining dreams to sentences and tying joy around words can never give them the justice they truly deserve.

All i know is i love to write, i love attempting to put thoughts to paper, or thoughts to a keyboard... So this is me and my attempt. 

So i'm sitting in conflict, on how i would start this idea of a blog, and while asking the Lord for some serious inspiration, he provided with Paul. 

"And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same imagine from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit."

2 Corinthians 3:18

We get to seek the lord, and HIS glory with faces unvelied. In the old testament, Moses has to hide the glory of the Lord behind a veil from Isreal; the glory of the Lord shined so brightly it would have scared them.  But in the beauty of the Gospel we can now seek the the glory and truth of God, unveiled, and be transformed into his image because of it. When we place ourselves within the light which shines from the glory of the gospel we become changed into the likeness of the lord, the more we sit in his glory, the more we can shine it back onto him and the world. We are a people of sin, we live in it, so we are daily slaves to habits, to temptations, and the lies of satan, if not careful it is easy to be transformed into the these. But the Lord really has given us a beautiful escape to be seen like him, and all it takes is seeking him. I think the term unveiled is beautiful, a bride is unveiled at her wedding, symbolizing the grooms taking control over the care of his bride. Well, i am trying to pursue the Lord and life the same way, giving the Lord total control of my care, because if anyone can take care of me i believe its is the man who knows every part of me, knows what is coming and what has passed. If i've learned anything it is that nothing bad comes from seeking the Lord, we are a people of unveiled faces, nothing in the way, no hinderance, so seek the Holy Spirit, let his joy and peace overflow by daily seeking his beauty, there is nothing greater to be transformed and reflective for than the most beautiful of faces.

As i embark on this blog endeavor, i pray my writing is written from an unveiled spirit, one that tries to accurately tell of the Lords glory. However, I will not succeed at this, i will daily fail in my attempts to tell of the Spirits movements, my opinions and ideas might not be in accordance with yours, and my humor might not reveal as humor at all, but thats the beauty of life and everything in it, we don't have to perfect, because some else is.
