MIRROR OF THE SOUL

Luke 11:35... Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.

Matthew 6:22... The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 

Mirror of The Soul

The outer beauty of ourselves

Is just as deep as our skin

We may look fair or meager

But that which matters is within

Our eyes will look upon man

for all that on the outside we'll see

But when assessed on the inside

One may not meet up with what it should be

The mirror in which one views

Shows only the reflection of time

We may behold a "beauty"

Whose heart and soul don't rhyme

Our aim must be, in this present life

To reflect the Love of God

That we ourselves will not be seen

But Jesus be standing in our spot

So, please, have yet another look

In the mirror of your own heart

See if you're already fading away

Giving room to what is the Lord's part

For it will not do us any good

If our mirror doesn't reflect the Son

We don't have any strength nor beauty

Our own attractiveness must be gone

To love ourselves is carnal minded

Showing forth Him, to self we must die

That which we see won't last forever

It's the eternal "unseen" we cannot deny

Our beauty is only in Jesus Christ

While connected with the Father above

When willingly be His hand extended

The mirror will only show His love

2 Corinthians 6:10b...as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

2 Corinthians 4:18... While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Romans 8:6... For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
