In general we judge people qualified on the basis of competence and character. In understanding how God qualifies us we have to understand that God looks at our heart, not on what we do. Being transparent with God allows us to be free and have the self confidence we need to live life fully.
We don't change so God can love us more. Because God loves us, we have the power to change. He alone is our qualifier. We cannot qualify ourselves when the solution to being unqualified is to know Jesus. It is to live our lives with all our challenges knowing that our confidence is in Jesus.
We can be open and honest with ourselves and stop comparing ourselves to others when we allow God to work in our lives through His love and grace.
This book makes for thought provoking reading. I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
