" FORGIVENESS " MY PHOTO, ©

Image may contain: flower and plant

He stood Before the mirror of His soul Wishing to look at the Reflection of his Inner self In a little while, his Idol appeared: Timid Foggy Blurry Distorted Not a pretty sight! He knew He had to meet his creator. His days were numbered. There was no time left for him to polish the mirror, To make his soul emerge more presentable to his Lord. Desperate He fell on his knees. Started praying for forgiveness for all he had thought, said and done in his life. His tears Rundown his ravaged with pain face. He was so sincere in his supplication. A truly repentant person who was asking God's mercy. He remained thus in silence, not knowing what to expect. Finally, He raised his head and stood up. He looked at the mirror once again. There he saw his idol that was looking back at him: Sharp Smiling Elated Forgiven Blessed! God has shown His mercy! © Demetrios Trifiatis 14 January 2021

That piece Demetrios depicts all of us. It is why we should strive to do as he wants us to do. It is sometimes difficult to live in this carnal body. Exceptional piece that we all should realize we are that person in the mirror. POTD material here my friend...

A verse that easily could be about each and every one of us. We have all strayed from his guiding path at some point in our lives and if we are truly sorry then we too may be shown mercy. Hope alls well Demetrios. Tom

True , dearest Tom, we all may find ourselves to the same predicament! God have mercy on us! The best defence is to walk on His path of rightusness! Thank you for lovely visit and comment!
