Beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord. (we) are changed into the same image. 2 Corinthians 3:18
Recognition, My Child, brings Me into focus. Your motives concern Me; for I know that from pure motives spring good works.
Recognition is the sight I give your inner eye to discern distortion of My image in your own character. I would have your personality patterns display My character, and wherever this fails to be so, there is distortion of the image, and as others look to you for guidance and inspiration, they do not see a clear image of Me.

God wants us to be like him, he is working in us to make us into his own image, it doesn't easily happen it takes work and effort, just as it is difficult to prune a tree, it is difficult for God to prune us.  Really we are stubborn, strong willed, want our own way, don't want to listen to God's instructions.....but he patiently waits there for us, and draws us to himself.  How much of God do we really want?  How close to him do we want to be?


Father, we give you this day, guide our steps and direct our paths and make yourself real to us, help us to listen to your voice and to follow in your steps.  In Jesus Name. Amen

Yesterday, part of the high school was away for career day, so it was quiet, today more students will be away.  But that is just the way it is and they are having good experiences.  I came home and painted some more, it is looking good.
