So often we are concerned about what others think about us, whether or not they like us and more importantly, what they say about us. Many times, we can make the mistake of identifying ourselves with who others say we are or what traits they may stick on us. The problem with this is that the standards of others will never be the standards of God. Therefore, when we try to fit into what persons think we should say or do, we are pleasing Man and not God. Regardless of what anyone says or thinks about you, the only thing that matters is what God thinks and says about you. But truly, “What does He say about you?” and “How do I know exactly what He thinks about me?” When we look into a mirror, we see a reflection of ourselves as we are at that present moment. This is simply how we know what we look like. God’s Word, in the same way shows us what we look like spiritually.
