SPRING FORTH NOW 2026

January 31

We can all draw close to him with the veil removed from our faces. And with no veil we all become like mirrors who brightly reflect the glory of the Lord Jesus. We are being transfigured into his very image as we move from one brighter level of glory to another. And this glorious transfiguration comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

II Corinthians 3:18 (TPT)

We are not who we used to be, and we are not finished becoming. Second Corinthians 3:18 (The Passion Translation) reminds us that transformation happens as we keep our Focus on the Lord, not on our limitations. To live High And Lifted Up is to keep turning your face toward glory, even when growth feels slow or unseen. For Black people and our communities, this is affirming truth: change is holy, progress is sacred, and evolution is God’s idea. Every moment of Focused looking shapes who we are becoming. When your Focus stays lifted, your hands move with confidence to build what God is forming within you. Let this word encourage every generation to keep looking, keep growing, and keep rising.
