Are you humbled by God’s thoughts of you? Well, you should be! You are loved and cherished by your Father in heaven, and He has nothing but good thoughts of you. There is a Christian artist who shares about the impact the revelation of how God sees him, literally, took him to his knees. It was a powerful encounter that changed the way that he viewed himself.
Knowing how God sees us should absolutely shift the way that we see ourselves, because if we can’t believe God, then we can’t believe anyone. If our Father in heaven declares who we are, and we don’t believe His words, then we are lost.
I remember years ago hearing a woman speak about her unworthiness, how unlovable she was, and how God did not see her or speak to her. For this particular woman there was much prayer that went into helping her understand that all of those things that she was feeling were lies. Her Father in heaven would never have viewed His child in those ways because He saw her through the righteousness of Jesus.
Sadly, it is impossible to change a person’s perspective if they do not want it changed, but what a happier life we live when we believe we are as God sees us.
Psalm 139:14 NKJV I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well.
