Seize the Moment – Day 186
Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery
“And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.”
This modern day hymn was created thru the collaboration of Matt Boswell, Matt Papa and Michael Bleeker, desiring to bring the church to a place of seeing the beauty and glory of the Lord and the change it brings in our lives.
“I remember working on each verse trying our best to fight to communicate the ‘mystery’ of the glory…the paradox of it.”
While rich in deep theology, you are brought to a place of making this song your own…asking God to reveal Himself to you as you reflect on each aspect of the wonderful gift that God gave us through His Son, Jesus…His birth, His life, His death and His resurrection. To fully understand that “For God so loved the world, He gave…” and He offered this free gift so that we might be restored to Him and have life and have it more abundantly.
Seize the moment today and reflect on these words:
What a foretaste of deliverance, How unwavering our hope
Christ in power resurrected as we will be when He comes.
