We can all draw close to him with the veil removed from our faces. And with no veil we all become like mirrors who brightly reflect the glory of the Lord Jesus. We are being transfigured into his very image as we move from one brighter level of glory to another. And this glorious transfiguration comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 3:18
The veil is ego. It is how we want to be seen in the world. We cover our faces by figurative and literal means to cover our shame at who we are.
The closer you come to God, the closer you come to yourself. Our true spirit feels no shame. The more we are transfigured into our true selves, the brighter we shine. The need for masks falls away. We need not hide from ourselves or others.
I have been in a deep ego state this holiday season. I am terribly concerned with how some people view me as a father and man. I’m releasing that and deepening my relationship with Christ. For in the end, it is the only relationship that matters.
