St. Francis of Assisi - March 25

Mirrors

"When you see a poor person, you are looking at a mirror of the Lord and his poor mother.  So, too, in the sick you are contemplating the kind of infirmities he took upon himself for us."  --Celano, Second Life, 85

So the imagery of a mirror I used yesterday is not anything new!  I recently read that the image you see in a mirror does not "reverse" the image as some believe.   It merely reflects light directly back at us.  Therefore, it is showing you what you are showing it.  This video explains it:  
                   

Physics Girls says, "The mirror is showing you what you presented to it."  This is something to keep in mind, not only when we see Christ reflected in others, but when we look at ourselves.  Are we and others seeing Christ reflected in us?
