The Full Moon Redemption

Friday, January 5, 2024

Hebrew months are lunar, beginning on the new moon. Messiah 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 Messiah 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."
