Scripture: Odes of Solomon #13
Behold! the Lord is our mirror;
Open the eyes and see them in Him:
And learn the manner of your face:
And tell forth praise to His Spirit:
And wipe off the filth from your face:
And love His holyness:
and clothe yourselves therewith:
And be without stain at all times before Him.
Hallelujah.
When we learn to see God, we see ourselves, our real selves, not out material body or our ego self. And when we understand our true spiritual nature hiding behind our material self, we cannot help but love God and want to return to Him and be one with Him and serve Him*.
* I use "Him" as a convention, but as I've explained before, God is neither male nor female though he does have a male aspect and a female aspect.
Harold,
I woke up a few months ago with the words in my mind, "You are either mirroring or modeling in this world." Since then, I've synchronously come across a lot of information to confirm and explain those words, such as the words of Solomon you've included here, "Behold! the Lord is our mirror; Open the eyes and see them in Him: And learn the manner of your face." Those are sacred words I could meditate on for the rest of my life...
Blessings,
Jenna
