Accept God's Opinion by Rachel L. Hunter

By Rachel L. Hunter
A seamstress sat at her sewing machine trying to combine linen and polyester – two diametrically opposed fabrics – and out of the corner of her eye, caught her reflection in the mirror. She lifted up the presser foot, took her foot off the pedal, got up and faced the mirror. A hand reached out, and she heard, "Let Me show you your true reflection." Romans 12:21: "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." The Church tries so hard to overcome all the negative forces in this world with what it is seen as good by natural eyes. But the word "good" in the verse above doesn't necessarily mean positive, it means wholeness – that which is without holes – because it originates from God.

Don't Become Involved in Busy Work
 
To try to outdo the enemy by countering his attacks with positive actions in the universe is futile. When we do this, we become so involved with busywork that we don't have the time, energy or resources to take up our ability to co-create with Christ. We then fall for the lie that we need to conquer the world via our own power.
 
We should not count on the world (locked in the natural order of things) to give us what only God in His grace and mercy can provide.
 
Now is the time to reject the falsehoods that are grappling for control over our lives, and accept God's opinion of us so that we accomplish all that we can as God's messengers to the Earth.
