There I was standing in front of the mirror this morning
shaving and I recalled how Grandma always called the mirror a looking
glass.
Now I have this terrible habit of not pronouncing the "g" when saying
words ending in "ing".
So when I pronounce the words "looking glass" it comes out sounding
more like "lookin glass".
Well I let the thought pass for the time being and continued shaving.
After I finished shaving I headed into the kitchen and poured myself
a cup of coffee.
And as I sat there with my cup of coffee the thought of the "lookin
glass" returned to me.
So I thought on this for a while and I realized that maybe a "look
in glass" wouldn't be such a bad idea.
Something to make us look inside ourselves at the beginning of each
and every day.
To look inside ourselves and think about what positive things we are
doing to strengthen our relationship with the Lord. . . .
And what negatives we are adding that could damage our relationship
with the Lord.
Well the coffee is done, and I think tomorrow I'll spend an extra minute
or two in front of the mirror to use it as a "lookin glass".
Just a thought over coffee!
