Be Delighted With Who You Are
Psalm 139:13-18 You formed the way I think and feel. You put me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because you made me in such a wonderful way. I know how amazing that was! You could see my bones grow as my body took shape, hidden in my mother’s womb. You could see my body grow each passing day. You listed all my parts, and not one of them was missing.
Insecurity, low self-esteem, hold many a person back from being all that God created them to be. And for some people, it’s time to get a revelation of what God sees, when He looks at them.
When you see yourself in a photo or hear your voice in a recording, how do you react? The most common response is to cringe.
Is that really what I look like? Is that what I sound like? Oh no …
When you think about it, that’s a strange reaction. After all, you’ve looked at your bleary-eyed face in the mirror just about every morning of your life. You’ve heard the sound of your voice every time you’ve opened your mouth to speak.
Sure, we should never be full of ourselves, but the reality is that many people see themselves through a terrible layer of insecurity. These days we call it low self-esteem.
But when God looks at you, He sees something entirely different. He sees the wonder of His creation. Think about it: who you are, is the sovereign choice of the living God! So when He looks at you, He is just so delighted with what He sees.
Maybe it’s time to take a fresh look at yourself, through that lens.
