Seeing God in Yourself.
I have often prayed for others to see God in me.

How often do you pray to see God in yourself?
I’m not talking about a moral character trait, although important, I’m talking about your true-self, beneath the masks that we have been conditioned to wear through our lives. Our true, natural self is the image of God in us. Apart from ego-based defenses and optical illusions we project to the world, is where I am most like the Divine image stamped upon me at my first breath. It takes some time to be still; to sit in the quietness of the morning before the phone calls, emails, and traffic, to connect with our higher selves.
Too often we live a role instead of a life.
Jesus, the Christ, is the human image of the Divine. Jesus reminds me where God lives, in me. I pray that I may see God, who is Love, in me today, for I suspect it is difficult to see God in others, or for others to see God in me until I can come to a place where I see God in myself.
