We all have many mirrors that we look into daily.
There is the mirror of societal norms,
The mirror of expectations,
The mirror of tradition,
The mirror of acceptance,
The mirror of comparison,
The mirror of success
The reflection from these mirrors defines how we see ourselves, how we measure ourselves. The reflections also often determine our actions and makes up our goals and dreams in this life.
Now you see through a mirror dimly. If your desire is to see yourself clearly in the reflection of Christ leave these mirrors behind. Do not look to them for vision. Do not allow them to shape your life.
The Lord is coming to us in this time. He is setting His mirror in front of us. Do not turn away. Allow His reflection to burn the others away. Allow His gaze to break through these other mirrors. For with these mirrors the curse comes by leaving them stand, not by breaking them.
Do not turn away in this time. To turn away is to be overcome with shame and condemnation. To turn away is blindness and loss of hope. There is time, turn your gaze intently into the eyes of Christ. Come fully into His light. It is only here that you will truly see yourself and receive the hope and vision you need to carry you through this time.
May the Lord grant you courage as you seek Him.
