How Do I See?
All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel! He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us. We have plenty of hard times that come from following the Messiah, but no more so than the good times of his healing comfort—we get a full measure of that, too. 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 MSG
God's goal is to see us whole, reflecting the image of His Son.
I have a mirror in my bathroom. Several things prevent it from showing me my image: steam from a hot shower, soap in my eyes, the mirror is dirty.
God's Vision is not marred. However, we need to see ourselves in Christ, as He does. Our vision is marred by an imperfect eye or looking into a mirror that is ineffectual. Jesus tells us that certain things prevent us from seeing correctly: logs(as in our own pride and arrogance); looking at the wrong things; being sick. All of these three can be rectified. Jesus is my healer, He gives me His word to read and repentance deals with the logs.
We need to make Jesus our source and supply, our authority, our everything and live out of Him. Then, all will be good with our vision. Amen!
