In the Mirror of Life

IN THE MIRROR OF LIFE In Mirror of Life, reflections, span a lifetime of tears. Reflects moments of pure courage, and … embarrassing fears. Its reflections aren’t enlargements, of deeds both good and bad. It’s what it truly is, memories, we can’t change … a tad. Bible is like God’s “life mirror,” reflects our heart’s intents. Discerns the words, to others speak. reveals … just what we meant. In the Mirror of Life, I pray, that what God sees, sees true. LIfe, full of gratitude, and hope. and prayers … I prayed for you.
