DID THE FLASH GO OFF?
Much like faith in a light switch doing its job, hoping to capture an image and wondering "Did the flash go off?" barely takes a moment, but it can give the illumination necessary to preserve an image for a lifetime.
It's a question I heard often at family gatherings - and one I continue to ask regarding my own flashes of brilliance: some underexposed, out of focus or perhaps not that bright after all. But every once in awhile . . . something clicks!
Which is more likely to cause you to say "I am such a mess!" -
the reflection in your mirror or a glimpse into your heart?
. . . like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a
mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once
forgets what he was like. (James 1:23-24)
