Mirrors Don't Lie
"Only God is the source, and like a mirror, we are mirror images of God. A mirror enables us to understand the nature of ourselves, of God. That is all. It is a sacred tool, a device for reflection, just as this physical body is a sacred tool or device for the process of evolvement into the higher realms. Our physical existence provides mirrors for learning. A mirror is part of the teaching."

"For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you." – John 13:15
"…be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity." – I Timothy 4:12
We are to be reflections of the Creator, a good example of how to walk the talk, for others to see. We can choose to be a true reflection or a dark, murky image. Will others look at your life and want to know your secret? Or will they cringe in distaste?
"For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity." – I Corinthinans 13:12-13
Walk in love, walk your belief, such that others will see the Creator through you.
"For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps. Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth. Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously. Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed." – I Peter 2:21-24
