No, not another wrinkle! I completed my “morning routine” and noticed something new in the mirror — another wrinkle. Yes, wrinkles are part of the aging process, but this got me thinking. What does the Lord see when He looks at me? Does He see my wrinkles or something else?

The Lord doesn’t look at my wrinkles or outward appearance, He looks at my heart (1 Samuel 16:7).

We cannot fix ourselves, only Jesus can. We shouldn’t focus on removing our blemishes. Instead, we should have nothing between us and our Savior. By beholding, we become changed — spend time beholding the beauty and love of Christ in the Bible — and our inward reflection will change from us to Him — Christ-likeness.

Bible Promise: 2 Corinthians 3 Verse 18

“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord”

2 Corinthians 3:18

Call to Action

Look through the glass honestly. Look for the Lord, not for yourself.

Have you ever lacked wisdom? Have you ever wanted more wisdom? I have. Remember, God is ready and willing to give us wisdom and do even more for us, we just have to ask. It has taken me a while to learn that, but I'm so glad I've learned to ask God for more—and to...
