The Full Moon Redemption…
Hebrew months are lunar, beginning on the new moon. Jesus died on Passover, which is in the middle of the month, meaning that He died during the time of a full moon.
The full moon wasn’t a scary thing to the Hebrews, but beautiful. Because it spoke of fullness and fulfillment – just as Jesus is the ultimate fulfillment. He fulfills all emptiness and makes all things full to those who have accepted Him.
How did the moon become full at the time of His death? Not by trying to do anything but simply by reflecting the light of the sun. How do we become full? It’s not by trying to become more than we are, but by reflecting the light of God.
Just as the moon was made to reflect the sun, we’re made to reflect His glory. Let the light of God shine from you, touching every part of your life, emotions, secret things, talents, and dreams.
As it’s written, “We, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of God, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory just as from the Lord.”
You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill can not be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:14-16
Let your light shine for all to see that you reflect Jesus. Let God use you to the fullness of His glory as He touches your life.
Walk daily with God at your side!
Love always,
Ed
