'For now we see through a glass, darkly;
but then face to face:
now I know in part;
but then shall I know even as also I am known.'
(1 Corinthians 13:12)
Hello there,
The thought that first came into my head on reading the OP, was standing side by side before a mirror with my daughter, seeing her as she would see herself, yet realising how different her reflection was in the mirror to what I see when I look at her face to face. It was noticeably very different. We do not see ourselves as others see us. We also do not see ourselves as God sees us, for He sees us 'in Christ' - 'Holy and without blame.'
'But when that which is perfect is come,
then that which is in part shall be done away.'
(1 Corinthians 13:10)
Praise His Holy Name!
In Christ Jesus
Chris
