From a sermon on Revelation 2.18-29 (Jesus' letter to the church in Thyatira):
We all have a universal need to be seen; at the same time, there is pervasive fear to be discovered for the frauds we feel we are. God sees us at our most vulnerable, sees our envies and jealousies, sees to the bottom of our souls, and yet loves us. If you only knew the one who sees you and what He thinks of you - then you would never desire the things the world idolizes, influence, recognition, status, 'love from the world.' His love is sufficient.
