Exposed to His Glory

For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. II Corinthians 4:6

We cleave to the words of men and media figures. We are opened to the ideas the have for losing weight, staying healthy, have a great marriage but nothing that anyone can say or do is 100% sure. We read the books, we try the diets, we watch the talk shows but nothing seems to transform our lives like the people that adamently believe in their ways. I have tried to diet many times, I have tried to lose weight by exercise (following someone's plan) but I never got the results I desired. Yes I would lose weight but when th diet was over I gained all the weight and more back. I have tried to spice up my marriage through the advice of relationship experts but when what they said did not work it produced more strain on our relationship. Nothing this world has to offer ever can fully satisfy us.

I have witnessed it is not until I am done trying to change myself that I desperately seek the answers in Christ. When I turn from the words of men and myself I become exposed to His Glory. His manifested Presence changes me through the simplicity of His word. Through His word I no longer have to live bound to the complications that I had placed on myself. Then I can allow His Glory to change and transform me into His Image. When we are exposed to His Glory our health is restored, our relationships are strengthened, and our lives are liberated. We expose ourselves to so many things in this world but most of us have never been exposed to the Glory of God.

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:10

In this day let us strive to be honest with God and let us ask that His Glory be revealed to us. We are tired of trying and failing we need His Presence. Confession is the key to our exposure to God. Now therefore make confession unto the LORD God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange wives. Ezra 10:11 Whatever you are struggling with confess it to God and allow His Presence to work in your life. God bless you.
