"GOD deemeth us [looking] upon our Nature-Substance, which is ever kept one in Him, whole and safe without end: and this doom (assesment, judgment) is [because] of His rightfulness [in the which it is made and kept]. And man judgeth [looking] upon our changeable Sense-soul, which seemeth now one [thing], now other,—according as it taketh of the [higher or lower] parts,—and [is that which] showeth outward."
Julian of Norwich (Ch. 45)
God assesses us as righteous, holy and whole, and always one with Him. He looks upon us seeing our deepest inner person, seeing our true essence. He sees our true nature as unchangingly good and righteous, since it was made in His righteousness and is kept in His righteousness. This is our spirit, which the Bible has called the "breath of God" in humankind. Our spirit is always one with God's Spirit and is therefore always good. Unchangingly good!
Yet we humans tend to judge by appearances or by the clamoring thoughts and emotions of our "sense-soul," the outward conscious mind that experiences the material world through the senses. This judgment is changeable. Sometimes we may think we are good and have good thoughts and actions, and other times we may think we are bad and have bad thoughts and actions.
So it is very important to remember that God is always looking at us based on the true good person or essence of who we really are, the good nature He made and keeps one with Him inside of us. Despite our changeable thoughts, words and behaviors, we are good in essence, good in spirit, righteous in our substance that we're made of, which is the goodness of God Himself. This nature, this essence that we truly are, is unchanging. It is constant, just as constant as God is, since it is from God and one with God. So we see that people may sometimes see us as bad, but God always, always sees us good and innocent and even righteous!
"God does not see as humans see. Humans look at outward appearances, but the Lord looks into the heart.”
1 Samuel 16:7 (GW)
A Prayer: You look into my deepest parts and see the goodness there!
