See Through

Transparency is a buzz-word in the coffee trade that implies disclosure of economic factors behind the supply chain. The desired effect is that consumers can see realities that impact producers. The term seemingly allows those outside the chain to look into the details that will allow the satisfaction of knowing fair and ethical methods are being practiced. But, recently it struck me when listening to a song…


Don’t look at me I’m see through

This caused me to think about what it means to be transparent. It really means to see something that is exposed as a result of transparency in front of it. Contrasting that to being hidden when non-transparent. So what does this mean as a Christian, being reborn and given the gift of God’s grace, it is answered in the last verse of the song…

I would love to be made perfect
but instead I have the grace of God
you should look through me
and you will see what I want to be
