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.
The glory of God is an ever-expanding revelation that shocks and stuns us with awe and worship. We experience God more than we apprehend Him. We never expect it, and like the sunlight that glints on the leaves of a tree, we can't look directly at it. God's glory reveals everything.
Think of Jesus on the mount of Transfiguration. Think of Moses who saw the back of God and had to wear a veil the rest of his life because the glory from his face terrified everybody around him. It revealed them. Nothing is hidden from the glory of God. Everything is laid bare...all our secrets, every private thought.
