1 Corinthians 13:12 – “For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a dim (blurred) reflection [of reality as in a riddle or enigma], but then [when perfection comes] we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in part (imperfectly), but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood [by God].”
Just as I AM
When you look into the mirror
What do you see?
Do you see
The dust from whence mankind was formed
Or do you see a reflection of ME?
Do you see the process
Of My transforming work
Maturing you to be
A little bit more like Me
Day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment,
As I prepare you, reveal Myself to you, and reform you,
Reconciling you to My Word, My Will and My Way?
Will you take the time to praise Me
That I can raise thee
From the murk, and miry clay?
Will you take the time to pray
Entering into My presence
With Holy reverence?
Will you take the time to enter into Me
The Living Word, which transcends all space and time?
Come now and let us dine together
At the banqueting table
With all those who are willing and able
To believe
And receive
ME,
Just as I AM.
Now look into the mirror again,
That your sight I may mend.
For only when you see
ME,
Just as I AM
Will you be set free
To become
Intimately one
With your Creator and Lord.
So, I come with My Sword
To sever spirit and soul
That you may know
ME,
Just as I AM.
So, I come to deliver you
From your blinded sight
Shedding My Light
Into your darkest night
That all things be made right
That your reflection be made new
And you be able to see
ME,
Just as I AM
Living and breathing
Within
And through you.
