In a Bible Study I attended, I was reminded of Snow White and the 7 dwarfs.
Every morning, the witch would wake up and ask her mirror, “Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?”
The mirror would then reply,
“You my queen”
However, a time came when she was no longer the fairest. Snow White was the fairest. This made her bitter and angry…..
Who is your mirror? Are you always waiting for the world to tell you that you are the fairest? If you are, then you’ll wait forever. The only one who can affirm you is the one who created you.
For example, if you really wanted to know how a Samsung smartphone operates, you will read its manual or better yet find out from its manufacturers. Different people have different opinions on how it operates but the manufacturer will tell you how they designed it to work.
God should be your mirror. Wake up in the morning, look at yourself in the mirror and ask God how do I look? You are His child. He owns you. You can never please everyone. Strive to please God and it shall be well with you. With God, nothing ever goes wrong.
When God is your mirror, nothing people say or think about you will matter anymore, because Jehovah has the final say. Know who you are in Christ. Find your identity in Christ and then everything will work out just fine.
I have had moments of doubting myself and thinking that I wasn’t good enough, but Christ reminded me that I have always been good enough, because I was made in His image and likeness.
Confess positive things to yourself because guess what? Whenever God looks at you, He sees daddy’s little prince and princess. ☺☺
As I am about to sign off, I came across this quote that I think you should reflect on;
The devil knows you by your name but calls you by your sin, but God knows your sin but calls you by your name.
