How Do You See You?

The LORD will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always end up at the top and not at the bottom, if you obey his commandments which I am urging you today to be careful to do. (Deuteronomy 28:13 NET)

We need to have God in our lives, and by that I mean on a day to day basis, not just on Sunday and then the rest of the week we forget about Him until the next Sunday...I mean every day. When we do this, He is able to let us see clearly how He sees us. In this scripture He is telling you and I that we have value, we have affirmation of who we are. If we don't have God in our lives, we will never know how He truly sees us, and if we don't see how He truly sees us, we are left to finding out who we are from other people. This is VERY dangerous! This is where low self esteem comes from and a whole host of other problems. That is what happened to me. Until I knew God, I looked to other people to define who I was. Unfortunately I was looking to the wrong people, and by that I mean humans. I developed low self esteem, codependendy, fear of rejection, etc. After I started living how God wanted me to live on a daily basis, I was able to see how He saw me. It took a while for me to get that I am the head and not the tail, I am blessed coming in and going out, I am the pupil of His eye...but I finally got it. 

Take Away: Put God first in your life, every day and you will see who you truly are, a blessed child of God.
