How Do I Look?

"When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, 'Here is a true Israelite in whom there is nothing false.'"
John 1:47

Jesus searched Nathanael's heart prior to meeting him and was impressed by his sincerity. If Jesus saw me approaching, what would he declare? To consider this, I must ask how do I see myself? I know my thoughts, opinions and beliefs better than any other person. Do I like what's there? Is it impressive to the King of all kings? Honestly, I would not impress the dullest person on my best day.
Jesus, I pray that others would see you when they see me, your kindness and loving mercy.  Create in me something of refinement.
