Reflection (#2 of 2)

Context: Following “Recognition” (https://wp.me/p45bCr-bv0), which I posted yesterday, this is the second of two linked prayers that arrived in the night, following a challenging treatment session with my pain consultant.


Keep on seeking, and you will find (Matthew 7:7; NLT).

Jesus,

May I seek and find you:
In my mind, and heart and soul.
Please transform me, day by day, Lord:
In my mind, and heart and soul,

Till I grow much more like you, Lord:
In my mind, and heart and soul;
Then I will reflect the glory
Of your mind, and heart and soul.

Humankind was created as God’s reflection: in the divine image God created them; female and male, God made them (Genesis 1:27; NLT).

Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us (Colossians 3:11; NLT). 

Jesus replied, “You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind” (Matthew 22:37; NLT).

Whenever anyone turns to our God, the veil is removed. Now our God is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of our God is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces reflect our God’s glory, grow brighter and brighter as we are being transformed into the image we reflect. This is the work of our God, who is Spirit (2 Corinthians 3:16-18; TIV).
