Radiating the light
As a woman ,i will not leave the house if am not sure how I look like .I want to be certain that my attire , hair do, make up and mien is intact. This is because there is 'knower' in me that tells me my appearance really matters to me and to the people i will meet and interact with .What they will feel,say and think about when am around them really matters.It takes me some good time in front of my mirror to tick that I am ready and comfortable to hit the road.I firmly believe appearance depicts so much about us without a word to the world . The unspoken can be and is so loud that the deaf can hear , blind can see.Many times we are stereotyped to be believe that what people say,think and feel about us is 'None of my Business' ,is it? If what is in the inside is not right it obviously pop on the outside either in dressing ,attitude,tonal speech or in how we do our work.I have attended several video shoots and picked a few lessons in regard to appearance from a very imperative object used and i'd love to share with you.
Lesson 1. ~>One constant thing you will always find is the (Reflector).One day I took time to observe and learn its importance,its role in video shoots and the major role is to cast back light in a'' Particular'' direction.Comparing this to my life as the reflector radiating the light of God ,there is a Particular assignment roled out as Peace' and can only be done to fruition by me because that particular and virgin thought (purpose) is what prompted Him to create me.That means each one of us is branded ,stamped and etched to do (reflect) a specific thing so well that only you Many times we are stereotyped to be believe that what people say,think and feel about us is 'None of my Business' ,is it? If what is in the inside is not right it obviously pop on the outside either in dressing ,attitude,tonal speech or in how we do our work.it well and i paused to think about it,ooh , in all stages of our being made we should accomplish something good no matter how small and unnoticeable because at the end,the same building will have the To Let banner or On Sale.
Back to the reflector,Lesson 2. was when the camera guy kept changing the color of the reflector and I did not know why, so I walk to him to enquire and he said the color is changed to suit the effect you need but the position of the reflector,subject and main light remain untouched for balance and equity .This is what God has been doing to me and in me,keeping me at the same position (on my knees) creating noticeable changes in me,In 2 Corinthians 3:18 Note (its in present continues tense) ,'' (having an unveiled face I am reflecting the Lords glory, I am being transformed into his likeness with ever increasing glory which comes from Him) paraphrased to person .He remains the the constant and the main light source,at times we in the dull stage of reflection but all the same we reflect ,let us quit the game of ''parallel'' and comparing ourselves to that other person yet we don't know which "color of the reflector'' they are on.How you radiate matters ,your source of light matters ,where your light is directed matters

Some reflectors will be re-positioned to enliven, some to create a subtle effect and others to be conspicuous ,depends what effect the Master needs.
Never assume you are irrelevant at any level of glory illumination simply because those around you don't notice, let your 'little' light keep shining and glowing and one day you will be impeccably unignorable
Be you.
