Description

In this short reflection, we explore 2 Corinthians 3:18 and the practice of contemplative seeing.Paul uses the word katoptrizomenoi—“to behold as in a mirror”—reminding us that spiritual transformation happens when we set our attention fully on Christ.

Key Takeaways:

* We become what we behold.

* Transformation is not about striving harder, but gazing longer.

* In Christ, the veil is removed. We now have direct, open access to God’s glory—and that changes us.

Reflection Question:

What are you gazing at most in your daily life?Is it shaping you into the person you long to become?
