Projection and Reflection


This morning's cool air was refreshing as I finished breakfast and my third cup of coffee:) 
As I relaxed in my chair to take in a podcast considering Hebrews 3:13, I began to adjust my laptop screen to lessen the reflection. As I paid attention to what was on the screen I "took a step back" as the reflection I saw captured my attention. I became intrigued with everything that my screen was not only projecting but reflecting as well.


Almost like a puzzle, a mosiac or even "Where's Waldo", there is much in this picture.

Many thoughts and even questions go through my mind as I think through how this image will help me to focus differently as well have a positive impact on how I live.
  • What is the most important thing in my view that I need to pay attention to?
  • Is there so much reflection that I don't see what I am supposed to see?
  • What is necessary for me to absorb? 
  • What do I discard that is not needed?
  • There is subtlety and distinctness to different reflections, how does that resonate with me concerning what my life reflects?
  • Like a parable, what will I walk away with? 
For me, the first significant question that comes to mind as I begin to unravel this image is: How do I reflect and live out what Hebrews 3:13 invites me to?
