DON'T FORGET WHAT YOU SAW IN THE MIRROR
There's a term we use once in a while for people who are always looking inward to see who they are and what they are. We called them "naval gazers."
When we do that, we quickly find things to be discouraged over because of our human tendencies. As we gaze at ourselves, we lose track of who God made us and why he made us.
In the book of James, the first chapter, we are reminded that the word of God is the mirror that we look in to see our genesis. As we gaze into the word, we understand that we are a reflection of Jesus and made in his likeness.
However, James also warns us that many walk away from that mirror of the word of God and forget who God made them.
There is such a thing as false humility. We hear it in too many places in the Church. Statements such as "I'm just a sinner saved by grace." That statement sounds very pious at the outset, but it still ties us to our past.
The current reality is that I am a son of God and a joint air with Jesus Christ.
I am also aware that I am dead to sin and alive to righteousness.
But you say, how could that be true? I just failed again today.
I say back to you, "just get over yourself," and step into the reality of what God has made you and your purpose on this earth.
Go back again to the word of God that reflects the real you, the face of Jesus in that mirror. Then step into your destiny and be who God has called you to be.
