Reflection

Stored up anger, hurt, hatred, fear, lust, depression, and many other emotions show up in a silent language of the heart.  Try as you might to not show it, our inner thoughts leak out of us that others pick up on.  These emotions are reflected back to us in how others react to us. 

Proverbs 27:19  As water reflects the face, so others reflect your heart back to you.

It's kind of cool when you think about it.  It's the Holy Spirit's way of telling us that we have a problem that we haven't dealt with just yet.  But why can't we just bury our problem and forget about it??  Because God has a Quality Control program that lights up everything that is dark, so when we are lit up by God's glory then the dark rot-spots within our lives show up.  The closer we get to the light the more glaring those dark spots are.  Imagine a clean white, well lit room with a tar spot on the wall.

As a light is a beacon in complete darkness, so a dark spot is the focus point in complete light.  This is a very good thing!!


Why not start some new good clean habits today?
