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?
