HOW GOD SEES

Today is Thursday.  We have had a busy three days with the Youth Explosion and seeing over 150 teens trust Christ as their personal Savior.  Wow!  It was wonderful to behold.  A whole lot of hard work, but worth every bit of it.  Today I am in Judges, and here is the thought:

HOW GOD SEES- In Judges 6:12, it says of Gideon:  "The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of valour."  Now, God is saying this while Gideon is hiding in a winepress, fearful of the Midianites.  Are we missing something?  Does God know something about Gideon that we do not know?  Well, yes God does!  God sees us for who we can become in Him.  He has a plan for our lives, and He sees us for who we will become to fit into His plan.  You see yourself as a failure, but God sees you as a conqueror. When you look into the mirror next time, try seeing yourself the way God sees you.  See yourself as godly!  See yourself as successful!  See yourself as a soul-winner, a teacher, a leader, an example.  You are all of those things and more.... the way God sees you! 

Have a blessed day!  Pastor Mike Mutchler
