You’ve probably heard the old saying, “You want to put your best foot forward.” In today’s world, this often looks like a perfect picture on Instagram, an effortless climb up a corporate ladder, or a well-mannered family. Of course, while none of these things are terrible, they’re not really the whole story. But there is one place we can go to find the one who wants to see it all— the good, the bad, and everything in between? God! God doesn’t just want to see the highlights of who we are; God doesn’t want our best foot forward. Instead, God wants to meet our authentic selves. His light in our lives can illuminate who we really are in Him. It can lead us to real lives lived as our real selves!
