6. Spiritual Growth and Transformation
Being in God’s presence transforms us, shaping us to reflect His character and grow in holiness.
“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into His image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” – 2 Corinthians 3:18
7. Courage to Face Challenges
God’s presence equips us with the courage and confidence to face any challenge, knowing He is with us always.
