The Mirror of Life...
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By James Pemberton

The Mirror of Life…

The "mirror of life" was placed
before my mind...
There were many things I was to find.

As I looked into the mirror....… 
There was “confusion?”
A “wandering mind”
filled with “pollution”

I thought about what enters in?
As the battle for my mind…  Each day begins.

God’s given me a clear path.  A NEW direction!
It began with Christ and his resurrection!

I can have my mind renewed
by God’s word...
HIS purity in my thoughts… 
Need to be “stirred!”

It’s the Godly way of thinking
 that’s the best choice.
He speaks hope to me. 
In a “still small voice.”

I've allowed him to place
a new "mirror" to look at...
He’s here to help me right
"where I'm at. "

I want to experience all he has to give
and so much more!
He’s willing to help me…
What am I waiting for?

He can give me TRUE LOVE
and a “cleansing” throughout.
This is my God.  
And is what he’s all about!

He's a God of restoration and a hope divine…
Now's the opportunity!  Now is THE TIME!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
