"You show that you are a letter from Christ, .... written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on the tablets of human hearts." 2 Cor 3:3
Have you ever thought of yourself as a letter?
When you read a letter, or an e-mail, book, or blog, you are reading the author's voice. It sounds like him/her, reflects their views and thoughts, and speaks of their heart. And in the same way you are God's letter to the world. Written by the Spirit of the living God as He is continually transforming you into the likeness of His Son.
"And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." 2 Cor 3:18
I'm praying about how I'm reflecting God's glory in my life. What other's "read" from me. Is it the fruits of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control? Or is it more like grumbling discontent, fussing, quarreling, and feeling sorry for myself?
Oh Lord, work in my heart to be a letter that reflects Your sanctifying power in my life!
