"Fix your gaze on Yahweh and your face will grow bright, you will never hang your head in shame.’’ Psalms 34:5
The face of Jesus radiates tremendous light on those who behold Him. The instant we behold His countenance, we are made aware of the darkness within us, our sins. If we fix our gaze on Him, and our eyes meet His, something even more amazing takes place within us - the loving Light that flows from His countenance casts out every sin of ours, and our minds and faces which were once dark now begin to glow with a divine brightness. This light begets holiness, which in turn begets boldness in the Lord, thus removing our guilt and shame forever.
