I am seen

💭 Reflect
The car door is opened for you. Will you get in and let Jesus take the wheel this year? Will you sit back, breathe out, and trust Him to steer you where you need to go? You stare out the window at the scenes passing by and then you look at Him. He’s already looking at you. He sees you. He’s looking right at you.

📖 Isaiah 43:4 
“You are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you.”
