Made in His Image

 

 

                    She looked into the mirror

 

                         seeing only pain.

 

                    Saddened eyes stared back at her

 

                         from too many sleepless nights.

 

                    Guilty feelings brought regret

 

                         as a shameful past had control.

 

                    In her mirror she saw a life not worth living

 

                         strewn with problems she bore alone.

 

 

        And… He

 

                    Who saw things through different eyes.

 

                         He, Who was her Lord and Savior.

 

                     The One Who had created her

 

                         for a lifetime of joy.

 

                     Her Lord Who had lived briefly...

 

                         so she would know peace.

 

                      Her Savior Who had given His life

 

                         so she would own grace.

 

        Wept.
