To reflect:
-show an image of
-embody or represent in a faithful or appropriate way
-bring about a good or bad impression of
-think deeply or carefully about
-Oxford Dictionary of English
A mirror is a fantastic reflector. Every image that crosses its face is crisply portrayed back; sharp, full of detail, an accurate representation of what the mirror sees. As Christians, we could perhaps call reflection our greatest task. Reflection of the life and love of Jesus. Unlike mirrors however, we are not called to be passive, one dimensional reflectors of a picture or scene. We are called to engage, to live, and to reflect in our full bodies that which we see in Christ. To portray in the big picture and in the details the love that we see in God.
A reflection is just that. Not the source, but a tribute to the source.
Welcome to my blog. I am going to Mabaruma, Guyana to homeschool two missionary kids. Their parents fly planes for Adventist World Aviation in, out, and around Region One of Guyana doing medivacs and other needed services. Guyana is in Northern South America-a little North of Brazil. I will leave home September 20 and plan to be gone 8 months. I’m excited, but nervous; scared, but hopeful. It promises to be an experience like no other. Please pray with me as I reflect, and learn to merely Reflect more fully.
