We Act
With Great Boldness
For
if what was set aside came through glory, much more has the permanent come in
glory!
Since, then, we have such a hope, we
act with great boldness, not like Moses, who put a veil over his face to keep
the people of Israel from gazing at the end of the glory that was being set
aside. But their minds were hardened. Indeed, to this very day, when they hear
the reading of the old covenant, that same veil is still there, since only in
Christ is it set aside. Indeed, to this very day whenever Moses is read, a veil
lies over their minds; but when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. Now
the LORD is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
And all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though
reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one
degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.
2 Corinthians
3:11-18
We all know want to know that our
lives are involved in something worthwhile. Without a strong sense of calling
and purpose, life is nothing more than routine
busyness.
Being a follower of Jesus gives us a
distinct advantage when it comes to having a sense of purpose.
Glorifying God
means putting His character, His will, and His ways into action in all that we
do. It is a profound privilege to mirror God’s love, mercy, grace,
justice, and righteousness to a world whose heart is ‘veiled” to God’s truth!
Our purpose is to show others less of us and more of Him. That is living on
purpose with a purpose!
The
Christian’s purpose is to promote God’s plan.
