The smooth, still nature of God’s presence provides a lens through which we are invited to see ourselves reflected back in love.  It is a looking-glass into our heart.  Often we cannot imagine the magnitude of beauty to which we would be presented.  When the same glassiness is shinning in our hearts and exudes from who we are others become the witness.  They often notice the magnitude of love emanating from us before we see it in ourselves.  They may not describe it to us in that way but they are struck by what they are seeing.  Sometimes when we are present with someone for whom the glassiness of being is residing in them fully we can’t take our eyes off of them.  They seem to have a flow and peace about them.  I imagine this is what it was like to be around Jesus or Buddha.  It is what draws us in when view artists and athletes at their best.  Through the glassiness of their true spirit we get a sense of our capacity to be the same.  Just like glass is smooth enough to see through it also reflects ourselves for us.  If we are not able to connect to the glassiness of love’s presence in us, we can start by noticing it in others.
