The veil has been torn. There is beautiful light everywhere—He has risen. I ask myself, and I ask you: are you resurrected?

Self in the mirror… am I wounded by my own words or the words of others? By betrayal, disappointment, or delay? Do I see earthly bias and prejudice in me? Do I see spiritual blindness—religious bias and pride? Do I look like a Pharisee, a scribe, or do I look like Jesus resurrected in me?

“For there is no respect of persons with God.” — Romans 2:11

God is impartial, offering salvation to all. So I ask again: self in the mirror… do I see that in me?

Listen.

“Put off your former conduct, the old self which grows corrupt according to deceitful desires, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind. Put on the new self, created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.” — Ephesians 4:22–24 (NKJV)
