Proverbs 27

As a face is reflected in water,
so the heart reflects the real person.

My mentor use to challenge me with this verse all the time. It reminds me of the movie The Lion King! Simba looks into the water and he believes to see his dad but in reality, he is looking at himself.

We can look good on the outside, but its what is going on on the inside that God is most interested in. The real us tends to be revealed when we are around people that are closest to us and we can be ourselves. But, does that private person, match the person we are in public? The only way this can happen is if we look at our heart and ask ourselves some hard questions, like . . .

Who am I going to live for today?
Do I practice what I believe?
Do I say one thing, but act differently?
Am I allowing God to transform me from the Inside Out?
