CHOOSE: TO REFLECT


Sorry for the inconsistency in today's entry title. Mostly, I've been using nouns and gerunds (verb forms which function as a noun) but today, only the infinitive phrase would do. That's what I want to continue choosing. Not reflection in general but "to reflect" Him in my life. To reflect in word and deed, the One who gave me life.
This simple reflection through my window pane onto the bottom kitchen cabinet brought up all this grammatical searching. Because of that, I changed the entry title from reflection  (noun)  to the  infinitive verb phrase to help me remember that this needs to be action, continuous action, in day to day choices of any believer.

And to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. (Ephesians 4:24)

Whatever happens, to conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ (Philippians 1:27)



And to put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of God
(Colossians 3:10)

Believers everywhere, you, too, can choose "to reflect Christ.
