Giving Up Our Mirrors March 13, 2015
[Bezalel] made the laver of bronze and its base of bronze, from the bronze mirrors of the serving women.
Exodus 38:8
When Moses gathered the children of Israel together to begin work on the tabernacle (Ex. 3539), he called on Bezalel, a gifted artisan, to help make the furnishings. Were told that certain women were asked to give their precious bronze mirrors to make the bronze basin he was constructing (38:8). They gave them up to help prepare a place where Gods presence would reside.
Give up our mirrors? For most of us, that would be hard to do. Thats not something were asked to do, but it makes me think about how too much scrutiny and self-examination can be disconcerting. It can make us think too much about ourselves and not enough about others.
When we can forget about our own faces quickly and remember that God loves us as we arein all our imperfectionsthen we can begin to look out not only for [our] own interests, but also for the interests of others (Phil. 2:4).
Augustine said that we get lost in loving ourselves but found in loving others. Put another way, the secret of happiness is not getting our face right but giving our hearts away, giving our lives away, giving our selves away, in love.
Father, may I think more of others today than I think of myself. May I lose my thoughts about myself in my thoughts of other people and their needs.
A heart that is focused on others will not be consumed with self.
: Paul wrote the letter to the Philippians while he was under house arrest. He was waiting for a verdict that would either set him free or result in his execution. It was in these circumstances that he wrote about consolation, comfort, and fellowship (v. 1). Paul reminds the Philippians (and us) that these things come from our commitment to Christ. We have consolation in Christ, comfort from His love, and fellowship with the Spirit. All of our love for each other comes from following the example of Christ (vv. 2-5), which Paul explains in verses 6-11.

My condolences for the loss of your little friend.
Was Zeus a Samoyed? I had one named Preston, many many years ago.
He was an amazing dog!
