Spiritual Reflections 05.04.26
Good Morning Crossroad Family,
Matthew 17:1-2 , “And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, and was transfigured before them.”
Sometimes we feel the days ahead look dark, and we wish we could see what God sees. When change hits and someone you lean on may soon be gone, it leaves a tightness in your chest. Jesus knew His friends felt that fear. He spoke of the hard shocks to come, yet He said, “see that you are not alarmed (Matthew 24:6). Then, on the hill, He let them see a glimpse of His glory for a minute, “His face shone like the sun...” (Matthew 17:2), as if to say He is still King.
If you are troubled by what may come next, sit with Him for a while today. Ask Him to hold your heart, and to help you trust His path when you cannot see far. Ask Him to help you realize that He is near now, and He will not fail you. The same way that you were transfigured, I want to be transformed into the very likeness and image of You. Lord, I desire to be transformed from the inside out and allow me to bring others whom I encounter on the journey of a transformed life.
Here’s to a transformed life!
Grace & Peace,
