Mirror, Mirror
Most of us are vain and check the mirror for physical or cosmetic flaws. It is good to check yourself but do you see past that? God does. What does your image reflect spiritually? We too often see 'pretty' people in the world with an ugly attitude. 'God doesn't like ugly.'
Our walk in this life is meant to transform us into the likeness of Christ. Colossians 3;12 'Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.' Our talk must match our walk otherwise others will see the hypocrisy in our reflection. The impression you leave on someone is from your total package. Some people look smart until they open their mouths and remove all doubt.
Your TOM's will do nothing to help your walk with the Lord, so make sure that what people really see in you will show them the Spirit of Christ. 'You may be the only Bible they see.'
