How Do we Get an Accurate of View your Selves?
I have Good news for you: There is a mirror that never lies, It's objective and truthful and will tell you who you are, how much you matter, and why youre here on earth. My hope is for you to break free from deep - rooted misbeliefs, relational patterns that never seem to change, and internal struggles that seem without solutions, The mirror I'll shoiw you is a divine one, given to you by God to help you see yourself as He sees you. Despite what you've heard despite what's been planted in your conscious and subconscious mind about who you are. What you're worth and what others think of you. God declares that in christ you are wanted, valuable, secure, competent, beautiful, and called for a purpose only you can fulfill. Many false self - perceptions are too deeply rooted to be corrected with positive self talk. We must - Identify thge lies we believe in order to renew our minds with God's truth, if lasting change is what we're after. Humbling and committing yourself to change will redirect the course of your life whether you perceive your self positively or negetively acquiring a vision of your true self through God's eyes is transforming. In romans 12:3, the apostle paul tells us not to think of ourselves falsely but in accordance with sober judgment and with the faith God gives us - in other words, think of yourself the way He sees you. The really big implications of this amazing truth is that God loves us as much as He loves Jesus: " As the father has loved me, so have i loved you, Abide in my love" ( John 15:9 ). A real and profound journey begins with salvation and it involves living as a son or daughter of God who no longer has anything to prove. Whenn you trusted Him as your savior, you died with Him, your sins past present, and future--are forgiven. The moment you placed your faith in christ, the righteousness of Jesus Him self was given to you and God sees younthrough the lens of His Son you are reborn in the sons Image, this is your new standing before our heavenly father, whether you are living up to that Image or not. To be in christ is to be given our true identity. However, getting that reality from our heads to our hearts is no easy task. So if you believe in the power of prayer: Prayer: Father, help renew and shape my identity as your child, removing the lies that keep me from seeing my self as you see me.

Nicely said, Zell. One way I found helpful in change our own perspective from God's point of view is to drive a repentant existence; there's not real change in us if we keep doing the same mistakes over and over. So once we learn the right way, with God's help, we turn back from our wrongs and follow a new path, which is not easy, but so rewarding.
I wish you the best and God bless you in all work you put your hands on.
That is so true.The right path Is never easy some times frustration disappointing at times I think about giving up.
"removing the lies that keep me from seeing myself as you see me."
So true. We are limited by the many lies we have taken on board as our predominant belief system. Waking up to our true selves is not an easy task, but it can be done.
I wish you well on your journey :-)
