Job 40-42, 2 Corinthians 5:1-21, Psalms 5:1-17, Proverbs 22:14
What God said to me – There is an old movie called “Shallow Hal” about a shallow, superficial guy who only sees and judges people based on their outward appearance until he is hypnotized by his therapist so he begins to see people who are nice and kind and good as beautiful and people who are mean and cruel and unkind as ugly no matter what their outward appearance actually was. The question is, “how do you view people?” Do you judge them or accept them based on appearance? Are they attractive or successful? Are they like you? When I saved you, I made you a new creation – old things have passed away, and new things have come. You don’t want to be seen or judged based on who you were before I saved you so don’t judge others that way. Ask Me to give you a heart that sees people the way I see them. Your behavior, your attitude, and your demeanor are always a witness, whether good or bad. You are My ambassador in the world so never forget that you represent Me to those you interact with so walk in a manner worthy of your calling and glorify Me.
