Love/d On A Friday: Loving The Person You See In The Mirror

 

I see God when I look in the mirror and accept the person he made me to be... that is when I see Him most clearly.

If Jesus' Record Of Achievement reads something like this:

 PERFECT BEHAVIOUR, PERFECT MOTIVES

He did only God's will.  He did exactly what God wanted straight away and always willingly.  He kept all the Commandments.  (John 19:28-30, John 15:10, Philippians 2:5)

He delighted to do whatever God wanted because it was God's desire - no matter what it was.  It was all because He loved God more than anything else.  He didn't seek to please Himself but only His Father.  (John 8:29)

All He did was for God's glory.  He didn't take men's praise for Himself but gave all the glory to God for everything.  (John 5:41)

Your Record Of Achievement reads like this:

DITTO

Elyse Fitzpatrick says:  'Not only do we have a clean slate as Adam did, we've got something written on that slate that is so amazing I can scarecly believe it:  Jesus' perfect record has become ours.  Because God has accredited or imputed Jesus' perfect obedience to you, when God looks upon you...' He sees you in Christ's achievements.

God loves the woman He sees.  Can you love her?
