It is a misconception to think freedom means you do not have to pay a price. Freedom is not free. We can believe in the utopian society where everyone gets along with each other and we are all happy. Unfortunately, there are many beliefs and countless differing opinions. It is my opinion, that we cannot continue to hide behind a veil of secrecy. Veil is not gender specific as one definition says. It is not just a fine material worn by women to protect or conceal their face. Thousands of years ago, it was used to put over Moses face. Up to the present day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. “Even today, whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their hearts. But whenever someone turns back to the Lord, the veil is removed. The Lord is the Spirit, and where the Lord’s Spirit is, there is freedom.” (2 Corinthians 3:15-17). We need to open the door to our heart and let the only source of true freedom enter. We need to reject secrecy and open our hearts to the possibilities when we proclaim the truth.
Transfiguration is a complete change of form or appearance as Christ appeared in radiant glory. (Luke 9:28-36) May we remove the veil covering our hearts and change into a new creation.
