Greetings!
I can't believe it's already Conference time!
We have only 27 more days until the 2020 National Conference Online. And, that means that it is Summertime. Although quarantined, I know you all are outside grilling and in the kitchen making potato salad. The year is going so fast. Pretty soon, we will putting up our Christmas trees and cooking turkeys.
During this time of separation, I have been very reflective. How about you?
As I have unpacked and lived with our annual thematic scripture the last few months it begins to take on new meaning and depth.
2 Corinthians 3:18, "
So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us
more and more
like him as we are changed into his glorious image."
It's imperative and aspirational all at the same time—becoming more and more and more and more like Christ. More like Him in our speech. More like Him in our actions. More like Him in our thought life. More like Him in how we treat others. In order to do that, we hav
e to continue to get to know who Him and the power of His life and resurrection (Philippians 3:10). One of my favorite writers says, "The knowledge of God and of Christ is the only knowledge which can lead to true and eternal happiness."
With love,
