Understanding Our Self-Image Through God's Eyes

As we navigate life, our self-image can often be shaped by external influences, past experiences, and societal standards. However, as believers, it's crucial to see ourselves through God's eyes. The Bible tells us in Psalm 139:14, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made." This truth reminds us that God designed us with purpose and love. He sees us as His beloved children, created in His image (Genesis 1:26). Our value does not come from achievements, appearance, or approval from others but from the unchanging love of God.

When we embrace God's perspective of us, we find freedom from insecurity and comparison. We are precious to Him, not defined by our flaws but by His grace. Let us remind ourselves daily that through His eyes, we are cherished, worthy, and deeply loved, and that transforms how we view ourselves and others.
