SEEING THINGS DIFFERENTLY

Today's reading: 2 Corinthians 1-3

"But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, then the veil is taken away." 2 Corinthians 3:16 NLT

Salvation, and the relationship it begins with God, gives us different 'glasses' with which to see the world.

The things you once thought were okay, are no longer seen as right, or good or profitable to your new way of life.

The ways you used to conduct yourself are no longer appropriate for a son or daughter whose sins have been forgiven as far as the east is from the west.

The words you once allowed to come out of your mouth no longer seem fitting for someone representing your Savior and Friend.

The way you see things no longer lines up with what the world says is acceptable and popular because for all intents and purposes, your audience now consists of One.

The veil that God lifts impacts every aspect of our lives--the emotional, the mental, the physical and the spiritual.
