What is the "Secret Law" governing your soul? According to A.W. Tozer, your life is shaped by what comes into your mind when you think about God.
It sounds like a bold claim, but think about it: your mental image of God is the "gravity" of your life. By a secret law of the soul, you will always gravitate toward that image.
If you view God as a harsh taskmaster, you will live in constant burnout. If you view Him as indifferent, you will live in isolation. Every relationship, every decision, and every fear is rooted in this one perception.
Because we are fallen people, we all carry a distorted picture of God. Our past has influenced our view of Him, our parents, our pain, or our culture.
The most important work you can do today is auditing your mental image of God.
When you close your eyes and think of God, what’s the first emotion you feel: Peace? Anxiety? Warmth? Distance? Let's be honest in the comments.
