A jagged mirror there a reflection lays
"Who are you?" I called out; words I gently say
Look closely at the eyes see how heavy they weigh
"Why?" I ask "What thoughts do you hold today?"
A half smile forms a whisper comes to me
"Can one find peace, will God make it a possibility?"
I listen, I nod, I place my hand on the face before me
"Of course He will, He loves you as much as He loves me"
"Broken, imperfect we came into this world
But in His image, we are loved and completely made whole
See yourself as you are to be seen
His child, His creation, His sacrifice...your ultimate being
Comes at a price His love is sown
Within your heart...let His peace reside and be known"
So I say to the reflection that mirrors me:
"If it's peace you seek, then faith God shall grant to thee"
Fear is removed as you cross into His promised land
For His ways are paved and He says "You can!"
Surrender your life within His outstretched hands
He will guide you...have faith...be bold!
For no man will put asunder what He has promised you!
So mirror mirror I look at me
...no longer jagged
...I'm at peace and made whole ... Amen!
