Unveiled

Stanton Lanier

“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.”

— 2 Corinthians 3:18 (NIV)

01.  Prompt

Sometimes life’s clouds keep us from seeing clearly, or understanding why something is happening. These clouds can feel like a veil or covering of our heart that keeps us from understanding.

It’s natural to feel isolated or alone in these moments, but the Holy Spirit has the power to shift our perspective. He reminds us that we are never truly alone.

While there is no guarantee we will see or understand things fully every time it seems like clouds are rolling in, that doesn’t change God’s faithfulness and presence. Even though our circumstances may be unclear or confusing, we have the privilege of coming to the Lord through Jesus with unveiled faces. He not only invites us into his presence, but he provides a way for us to approach him, forgiven and whole.

If you are feeling locked in by clouds, talk to Jesus and ask him to remind you of what’s true. Ask him to remind you of his promises and his faithfulness. He paid the way for you to be forgiven and to approach God with confidence.

02.  Listening & Reflection

As you listen to this song, let the simplicity of the melody meet you where you are. Let the ebb and flow of the song carry you to dwell on the character of God and the ways he has been faithful to you in different seasons.

Take time to reflect on the truth of Bible verses that have been an anchor for you. As you’re learning to wait for God to meet you, worship him for the fact that he made a way for you.
