That Degree of Glory You Already Have (2 Corinthians 3:18)

As we look into the face of Jesus we are told that we are being changed by the Spirit from one degree of glory to another. Have you noticed that we tend to focus on that degree of glory we don't have yet, rather than the one we have? This is a meditation on how wonderfully blessed we are to have our present state of glory. (It is chapter 9 in my book, If God Is For Us, Vol. 1: The Night Is Far Spent.)
