“What we see in the mirror is the result of the decisions we make in life.”

Look in the mirror and tell me what you see. If you like what you see, then you can stop reading today’s article. It’s not relevant to you. But, if it’s taking you too long to figure out who you really are; if you are disappointed with the person who is looking at you in the mirror, it means that you need a spiritual renewal, and I’ve written this message especially for you.

What we see in the mirror is the result of the decisions we make in life. Decisions like giving less than what is expected from us, or the kind of offerings we have done.

We are the result of our offerings. I don’t mean only financial offerings—these are the easiest ones and anyone can give them. Your life, your time, your dedication, your sacrifices, your efforts, and your love are offerings as well.

How many times have you found yourself in a situation where you could have done more, but you simply decided not to do it? Instead, you decided to do the least that was expected of you. This “offering in disguise” was probably rejected.

Perhaps, you have given many offerings that said, “I don’t care about what you think, Lord,” without even noticing it. These kinds of offerings can be compared to Cain’s—they are turned down. The worst of all is that they bring long-lasting consequences.

If you want to change the person you see in the mirror, change the kind of offering you give—the kind of offering you are. You are the outcome of your offerings.
