REFLECT

As I stated yesterday I am doing a project with a group of artist. This is another "RE" word I picked, the quote is a good one and I really liked the drawing for it so I am using it today also. 

When something is reflected it is a mirror image of the original. If you know any thing about mirror images you know they are exact copies except they are backwards. This gets me to thinking about how we are to reflect God and his Love for all. The thing is we because of our human nature we are flawed, "backwards" and can not reflect the true image of God. Jesus told his disciples to be like him, a servant in the world, to love and care for the poor and needy, to let their light shine before men so that they would see the way. I pray that I can reflect God's Love with a servants heart even though it may be a like backwards.

The Quote:
"Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get."  ~H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
The Drawing: (The quote is on the back)
