To See Me!

Good morning, Papa God! 

So much of the time I need to stop judging myself based on how I look or behave or feel.  When I feel discouraged, I tend to look inward and look to see what needs fixing. I need to remember that You don’t see me like I see me, and I am thankful for the incomparable riches of Your grace and mercy and kindness have been poured upon my life. Your vision of me is one in which I am clothed in Your robe of righteousness; covered by Your shroud of salvation, Your garment of grace, Your cape of contentment, Your mantle of mercy, Your radiant and perfect Love. How blessed am I that this is Your vision of me! Oh, that my vision of You, my God, would be so clear, like Isaiah in the temple. When he was at his lowest from the death of his king and utterly depleted of his own strength, he looked and “saw the Lord, lofty and lifted up, with the train of His robe filling the temple.” I began to realize that my vision of You has always become more clear when I have put to “death” the distractions in my life in whatever form those distractions might take. My vision of You is so very dependent on the condition of my soul and my character. The more that I am conformed to Your likeness and character, Papa God, the clearer my vision of You is. Papa God, continue to show me the distractions of my life that I need to throw away.

Good morning, My child!

I do see you as a completed vision! I see you as you will be when I am finished honing you into My likeness. You are clothed in My righteousness. My vision for you is to see Me, and you can only see Me when the other concerns and distractions disappear from your life. Your priorities in life must be Me first, Me second, and Me third until your life is all about Me. Yes, My child, I know I have given you others in your life, but they should not be placed above Me in importance. To see Me more clearly and, thus, My vision for you more clearly, you must come into My Presence daily (and often during the day) and seek My face. Trust and believe Me when you come into My Presence. I am changing you each time you enter My Presence.
