Mirror Image

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. II Corinthians 3:18

When you look in the mirror what do you see? Last night I realized how hard it is to look at myself. The enemy wanted me to look at my flaws and my blemishs and turn away from looking in the mirror. But God told me to keep looking. In my mind I questioned God "what am I looking for Lord". Then I saw what He wanted me to see. I saw my heart, my passion, my purpose and my heart wept before God. I saw my need for more of Him. My heart yearns to be filled by His love. My passion needs to be led by His spirit and my purpose is meaningless without His presence. The enemy does not want me to see my need for God. He wants me to be distracted by this world and live a life of no meaning. All we need is a mirror, not to look at our outward appearance but to look into the depths of our soul. To behold the beauty of our God. We are created in the image of God no matter how much we cover our blemishs with make-up, clothes, ego and jewelry we all desire to see the reflection of God. I have a long way to go but I am willing to seek God and plan for my life. Let us turn to God and allow His love to uncover the truth about us so that we can become His reflection that the world see and they are drawn back to Him. God bless you.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:27

  1. I just happened to stumble onto your blog, and I have to say, this post is really awesome! We are the image of God in clay jars, and as long as we realize that, then we will be just fine! I'll be following!
