I think Jesus feels strongly about communicating the idea of our brokenness, and I think it is worth reflection. Nothing is going to change in the Congo until you and I figure out what is wrong with the person in the mirror. ~ Donald Miller,
Blue Like Jazz: Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality
Before we can help others, we have to realize that we are not better than anyone else and it is our human nature to take better care of the person in the mirror than anyone else. Until we understand and believe that Jesus came, died, was resurrected and ascended back to glory for ALL people, we will never love ALL people as Christ does and has commisioned us to show. Until that day, we will take better care of the person in the mirror than we will of anyone else no matter where they are in this world.
