September – I am a Reflector
Reflector is the Hebrew lashaqaph and means reflect, mirror, make visible.
For God Who said, “Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves. 2 Corinthians 4:6-7
O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together. Psalm 34:3
(These are the memory verses on the front of the I am a Reflector Art Card)

When we receive Jesus the Messiah, our Father God brings us into an eternal, intimate, covenant relationship with Himself by the Holy Spirit. He gives us names that describe our identity as those who have been born again into His family. They remain constant even though the clouds of our feelings, circumstances, weakness, grief, failure, and emotions may hide their reality. We have this hope as an anchor of our souls, a hope both sure and steadfast...(Hebrews 6:19)
The devotional on the back of the I am a Reflector Art Card:
I am a Reflector.
The rainbow is a brilliant, arched spectrum in the sky created when sunlight refracts and reflects through droplets of water.
When the sunlight enters the density of a droplet, its color components refract at different angles. The separated colors reflect back through the droplet toward the earth, and we are able to see the beauty!
The sun is too bright for us to view directly, but we can look at a rainbow that reflects the sun’s rays.
We are not even aware that the Lord refracts and reflects through the facets of our personalities making His love tangible and receivable to those around us. He shines through us even when we are going through difficult times.
The Apostle Paul explained that we as the recipients of the Lord’s lavish kindness “would be to the praise of His glory.” Ephesians 1:12
O Lord, in wisdom You have created all things! Your creation reflects Your high ways, unfathomable to us, though we try to understand! You are awesome, wonderful, deeply creative, near!
