We look at ourselves in the mirror each day,
too tall or too short, not good enough, we say,
never really realising that what we’re doing,
is committing to something we shouldn’t be pursuing.
We peer into that glass not able to avoid,
the self-recrimination that leaves us devoid,
it should get us thinking, in a deeper introspection,
why is it really that we criticise our reflection?
The deeper we move into that kind of thought,
the less we relish the guilt we have caught,
but that moment of insight makes us realise,
to the God of our creation, we’re a prize.
We notice as we peer, no matter what we think,
there’s no way on this earth that to God we stink,
suddenly, there, a smile broadens gently,
as we realise afresh, God loves us intently.
