The Veil and Christmas

1 Corinthians 3:12-16

"Therefore having such a hope, we use boldness in our speech, and not like Moses, who used to put a veil over his face so that the sons of Israel would not look intently at the end of what was fading away. But their minds were hardened; for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains unlifted, because it is removed in Christ. But to this day whenever Moses is read,a veil lies over their heart; but whenever a person turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away."

It's Christmas week so why not a meditation on something... Christmasy? Well, it's because I believe this verse has everything to do with Christmas. There isn't only a veil over the hearts of the Jews, but over every heart. The Lord has graciously taken that veil away for us that we might His glory in the face of Christ. Without this unveiling, we would not be able to see the true worth of Christmas. Let us rejoice that the veil is gone so we can celebrate Christmas truly! God bless and Merry Christmas
