Radiant Faces
"Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame." Psalm 34:5
This is a pretty simple statement, but what an amazing promise! Look to him and become radiant! Who wouldn't want to look radiant? When we look to God, and are continually in his presence, the result that follows is that we will shine! Do you remember the story of Moses who went into the Father's presence to get the ten commandments? When he came down from the mountain, his face shone with the glory of God and he had to put a veil on his face. We have the opportunity to be in God's presence any time we wish. We have the privilege of calling him Father. We have instant access to him night or day. If we take full advantage of this opportunity, we will reflect his presence in our lives, and radiate his glory to those around us. Others may have their faces covered with shame, but not us; we will be radiant!
Father, thank you for your presence in our lives. May we seek to be in your presence always that we might be radiant, a reflection of you. Thank you for Jesus, who has removed the shame of sin from our lives that we might reflect your glory. Let us shine for you, Lord! AmenÂ
