You are more than the total sum of what you see in the mirror.

As we gaze into the mirror, we often focus on flaws and imperfections that cloud our perception of ourselves. This critical scrutiny leads to self-doubt, self-hatred, and dissatisfaction with the person we've known all our lives—YOU. However, I want you to envision a new tomorrow. As you look in the mirror, look beyond the reflection staring back at you. See past the walls of imperfection. The veil has been lifted, and for the first time, you can truly see something different: the authentic you.

Can you see it? The true, inner version of yourself—the visionary that has been waiting to emerge, perhaps for years or even decades. As you continue to look, it becomes clear—like an epiphany—you see what others have always known: the GOD in you. Beyond the external imperfections, you recognize the greatness within.

You have been endowed with the power to accomplish all that you set your heart to because the Creator lives within you. The key is to acknowledge your true identity in Him. At the moment of conception, God placed the power within you to speak with boldness about who you are and whose you are: a creative being with the ability to 'call those things that are not, as though they were.' These words are divinely inspired.

I challenge you to align your life with this revelation. Stop focusing on your flaws and begin to see the perfection that lies within—the God in you. With this newfound clarity, you will have the strength to climb mountains that others wouldn’t dare to scale. You now have the power to inspire others to see what you now see.

We are all part of one interconnected system, created fearfully and wonderfully by God, designed to fulfill the purpose He has established for us: to change and transform lives for

His glory!

Shalom.
