Reflection

taws-on-a-mirror-750373-m

The hardest person to look at is you. In order to see other people, all you need to do is to look using your own eyes. But to look at yourself, you need to use other tools. You can use a mirror for instance, or you can ask the people around you to tell you how you look. But do the eyes of others always offer an accurate reflection of who you really are? Sometimes it helps. Through the eyes of others, we can see our blind spots. We see both strengths and weaknesses we may not see on our own. But if we truly desire to see the truth, we need not look further than God’s eyes. Through His eyes, we can truly see who we really are.

Exposed to the Light

Sometimes, we do things we’re ashamed to let other people know. But why is it that we’re not afraid to let ourselves know and do these things in the first place?

Let us do such things with the perspective that they will be exposed to the light. Will they be things we’d be proud of? Or will they be things we’d rather hide?

Your Deepest Desire

If we can just set aside the need to conform to the measures of the world – what success is, what happiness is, what a fulfilled life is like – we can start to dream from the deepest parts of our hearts, and we can hear that small voice whispering where we truly belong, what we really ought to do, and what could really make us happy.

How Do You Judge Yourself?

When you go out to the world, prepare your heart, for the world will judge you based on your riches, your strength and your success. You need not fear all these however unless you judge yourself also based on the same standards.

Humbled by the Truth

silhouette-472335-m

We are humbled both by the truths that we get to know and by those truths we know we do not know yet. It is by this lack of knowledge that we may give others at least the benefit of the doubt and avoid judging others so easily. For all we know, we could be wrong. In the same way, others could be wrong about us. Only God knows us that intimately and by the light of His truth, He will set us free!
