Subject:  What About the Change?

2Corinthians 3:18 - "And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit."

Often as believers we try to find out where God wants us to work or we want to know what our ministry is to be.  At a bible study we were studying 2Corinthians, chapter 4.  Verse 1 starts with, "Therefore, seeing we have this ministry..."  To get the context we went back to the final verse of chapter 3.  What was interesting was that that verse only talked about us being changed into the image of Christ.  That's it!  The greatest ministry we could have is to undergo the change that God has planned for us.  Through that change, we affect more people than we could ever reach with our own plans of ministry.  Don't worry about "working" for God; just be changed.  This is a ministry we all have.
