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.
