WHAT DO CHRIST SEE WHEN HE LOOKS AT ME?

Introduction Sometimes I look at myself, and I see my mistakes. I see my fears. I see my past. I see the things I am still struggling with. And I ask myself quietly: “What does Christ see when He looks at me?” Because what I see in myself is not always kind. But I am learning that Christ does not look at me the way I look at myself. He Does Not See My Fear I often feel fear about life. Fear about the future. Fear about whether I am enough. But when Christ looks at me, He does not see fear. He sees someone He is teaching to trust Him. He sees someone He is walking with, step by step. He Does Not See My Past There are things I have gone through that have shaped me. Things I did not choose. Things that left marks on my heart. But Christ does not look at me and stop at my past. He looks beyond it. He sees that my story is not finished. He sees that I am still becoming. He Sees Me in My Weakness I don’t always feel strong. Sometimes I feel like I should be better ...

MY TESTIMONY

My Journey of Faith: From Fear to Peace For a long time, my life was shaped by fear. Growing up in a violent environment, I was always anxious and worried. Even though my mother was a believer and I grew up in the church, I didn’t have a personal connection with God. I knew about Him, but I didn’t truly know Him. Everything changed in 2016 at a revival service at Parklands Baptist. That day, I stopped trying to act like a “perfect Christian,” and I got real with God. I prayed with total honesty and told Him about my struggles and my anxiety. But what made this moment truly life-changing was understanding the work of Jesus on the cross and how personal it is. In the middle of all the chaos I was carrying inside, there was a moment of stillness. It felt like everything paused, and in that silence, Christ met me. Even though everything in my life felt heavy, I experienced a deep, unexplainable peace, even if just for a moment. For a long time, I had struggled with self-harm and deep inner...

  Lulu's Reflections This month’s learning has provided a deeper theological and personal understanding of the Christian life through the integrated lenses of Word, Deed, and Power, alongside the call to wholehearted surrender. These themes have not only shaped my intellectual framework but have also confronted my lived experience and spiritual posture. The framework of Word, Deed, and Power emphasizes the necessity of a holistic gospel. The Word anchors faith in truth and biblical fidelity (2 Timothy 3:16–17), Deed expresses that truth through tangible acts of love and justice (James 2:17), and Power reflects the active presence of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8). I have come to understand that isolating any one of these dimensions leads to an incomplete expression of the gospel. However, when held together, they create a dynamic and transformative witness that reflects the fullness of God’s intention. In parallel, The Genius of Surrender has deepened my understanding of disciplesh...

 Title: Learning to Trust God’s Timing Life does not always move according to our plans, and sometimes the seasons that feel slow or uncertain are the very moments God is shaping our lives the most. This week, through personal journaling, I reflected on how God has been guiding my journey even when I did not fully understand what He was doing. As I looked back on the past few years, I realized how many significant changes happened in my life. I became a mother, got married, and made the difficult decision to resign from my job without having a clear plan for what would come next. At the time, it felt like a step into the unknown. However, as time passed, I began to see that God was still leading me. New opportunities came my way, including receiving a scholarship and the chance to serve and work in the church. These experiences reminded me that what we sometimes see as delays or uncertainty can actually be moments where God is preparing us for something greater. One verse that deep...
