I Comprehend You In All Your ...

I COMPREHEND YOU IN ALL YOUR Complexity; no detail of your life is hidden from Me.  I view you through eyes of grace, so don't be afraid of My intimate awareness.

Dear Jesus,  It is totally amazing that You understand us - all of us - with absolute accuracy.  That could also be terrifying, if You saw us through eyes of law rather than grace.  Unfortunately, we often view ourselves legalistically: evaluating how well we are performing.  We realize how silly that is, because our performance will always be insufficient to meet Your holy standard.  That's why we desperately need Your grace!  Please help us to see ourselves, as well as others, through eyes of grace.  Amen

Beloved, come to Me and receive My unfailing Love.  You are troubled by fear of failure, but My Love for you will never fail.  Let Me describe what I see, as I view you through eyes of grace.  You look, regal, for I have clothed you in My royal righteousness.  You also look radiant, especially when you are gazing at Me.  You are lovely as you reflect My Glory back to Me.  In fact, you delight Me so much that I rejoice over you with shouts of Joy!  This is how you appear through My vision of grace.

Because I am infinite, I can see you simultaneously as you are now and as you will be in heaven.  The present view helps Me work with you on things you need to change.  The heavenly vision enables Me to love you with perfect, everlasting Love.

The best way to see through eyes of grace is to look through the lens of My unfailing Love.  As you persevere in this practice, you will gradually find it easier to extend grace both to yourself and to others.

- Jesus
