How Do You See Yourself?

How marvelous it is that we stop before Jesus, with all sincerity, and ask Him: “Jesus how do you see me?”

The truth about ourselves, comprehended and assumed, is the sign of humility, maturity and freedom, for “You will know the Truth and the Truth will free you.” (John 8:32)

Only the truth makes us free. However, many times, I admit, It brings us suffering. But when we have the courage to put it under the light of Christ and assume it truly all makes us new for us.

Lord, give us the courage of assuming our truth in order that we really can live as sons  of God, growing in stature, grace and holiness.

Jesus, I trust in you!
