Who Do I See?

Mirror, mirror on the wall, do you see Christ in me at all?

A good question that we should be asking ourselves when we get out of bed in the morning. And maybe several times a day. Who do we see when we look in the mirror?  Are there even any glimpses of Christ in us? 

If not, there should be.

When we look into God's mirror of us, perhaps we can believe what He wants us to know about him. And so what does he think of us anyway? Lets take a look.

For I know the thoughts I have for you. says the Lord. thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation. His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of him that called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 1 Peter 2:9

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires that all men be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 2:3-4

Now then, if you will indeed obey My Voice and keep My Covenant, then you will be a special treasure above all people, for all the earth is Mine. Exodus 19:5

And the Lord, He is the One that goes before you. He will be with you. He will not leave or forsake you, do not fear or be dismayed. Deuteronomy 31:8

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:168

Those verses are fine, but really-they aren't for us today, are they?

After all, they were given to God people that actually lived hundreds and hundreds of years ago.

Right?

Well Ok, I agree with that. However,f it doesn't stop there. Consider these verses.

All the promises of God are yes in Christ. 2 Corinthians 1:20

Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. Hebrews 13:8

God didn't just make promises to the people that he created. He made them for all of us that have followed and accepted him as our Savior.  Remember what he says in Exodus 18:5. For those that obey his voice, we are his "special treasures."  How can we question his love for us any more then that along with all the other things that he says to us in his word? 

Is it time for you to look into your mirror and see Christ in you? I myself have struggled with it myself. But I do know this for a fact,  If you have a hard time seeing him there, start meditating on the above scriptures along with the many others that God has given us and you will begin to sense his great love for you.  It is time we start seeing ourselves as what we should be. His special treasures. Because Friends, that is what we are. We just have to see it. He already does. 

Thanks for coming by today, Friends. God bless you and yours. Have a wonderful day in him!
