REFLECTING CHRIST 1 For Zions sake I will not hold My peace, And for Jerusalems sake I will not rest, Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, And her salvation as a lamp that burns. 2 The Gentiles shall see your righteousness, And all kings your glory. You shall be called by a new name, Which the mouth of the Lord will name. 3 You shall also be a crown of glory In the hand of the Lord, And a royal diadem In the hand of your God. 4 You shall no longer be termed Forsaken, Nor shall your land any more be termed Desolate; But you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; For the Lord delights in you, And your land shall be married. 5 For as a young man marries a virgin, So shall your sons marry you; And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, So shall your God rejoice over you. -Isaiah 62:1-5 NKJV And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lords glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. (2 CORINTHIANS 3:18) Of all my wonderful life-moments, perhaps my favorite is from my wedding. As my dad walked me down the aisle, I was fixated on my groom. The closer we got, the more brightly we beamed at one another. It was as though we were the only two people on earth. In that moment, we knew our lives were about to change permanently, and we couldnt be more excited about it. Every day we continue to reflect our love for one another through our actions and our words. People who know us know without a doubt that we are in love. A similar thing happens when we draw near to Jesus. As we are shining in the light of His glory, we are transformed. We are no longer alone in life; we have Christ at our side. We are His bride! Our actions and behavior should make it clear to everyone who knows us that we love and are loved by Christ. Our attitudes should reflect the changes that have happened as a result of getting to know our Lord and Savior more intimately. -Anchor
