A Reflection of Your Father - Joel & Victoria Osteen

"But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord...”
(2 Corinthians 3:18, NKJV)

If we brought our two children up on the platform and their clothes were all raggedy and worn out, if they had holes in their shoes and their hair was a ratty mess, you would look at us and think, “What kind of parents are they?” It would be a poor reflection on how we care for our children.

Now, think about how our lives reflect God’s goodness. When you’re happy, looking good, living in a nice place, excelling in your career, generous with others, that brings a smile to God’s face. It shows the world His goodness.

Always remember: it brings God pleasure to prosper you. It brings God pleasure when you show the world His goodness and glory. Remember, you are a reflection of your Father, and He delights in you!

Father, thank You for showing me Your goodness and faithfulness. I want to represent You well. Thank You for pouring out Your blessing upon me so that I can reflect Your love and goodness in every area of life in Jesus’ name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen
