What Does He Think Of Me?

We are so used to hearing people say negative things about us. It's good (actually, not that good...) if you directly hear it, but it's really disappointing if you hear it from someone else. That means you are not just thought of negatively, you are talked about negatively! This usually bring about paranoia, especially among women. It makes us think that someone is thinking negatively about us. It makes us constantly ask, "what does he/she think of me?" And it damages our self-image. This is really hard. I've experienced this for so many years... until I met the Lord and He restores my security.

In John 5:45, the Lord says "Put out of your minds the thought that I will say things against you to the Father..." This verse really ministered to me. It's like God is telling me (rather convincing me) to stop thinking that He has anything against me. When I meditated on this word, all the negative thoughts about myself are gone. I should not think negatively about myself.

Come to think about it... Why think negatively about yourself when even God Himself does not have anything against you?!! And why think negatively about other people when God does not think negatively of them also? Hmmm, makes a lot of sense!

God will never think and speak negatively about anybody. Our God is a positive God. He has positive thoughts about us. And He talks positively about us.

So, the next time you would ask yourself "what does He think of me?" you know the answer... Whatever it is that He is thinking about you, it is definitely something positive!
