Through the Looking Glass

Through the Looking Glass

Through the looking glass…what do you see when you look beyond the present?

“For now I see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as I am known.” 1 Corinthians 13:12 

Through the Looking Glass

Through the looking glass I peer,

eyes wide open, longing to see,

all the things in the world that lie before me.

I see storms, I see sun, I see rainbows and such.

They’re so real that it seems I can reach out and touch.

Life is uncertain, there are many things I do not know,

but as I seek God’s guidance, his will to me he will show.

When darkness surrounds me; I will not fear the night.

For soon a new day is dawning, full of all that is bright.

For now I can see, a glimpse of what for me is in store,

there is hope, there is peace, there is love and so much more.

What do you see when you open your eyes wide?

May it be the love God provides, when in him you abide.

    You were on my mind this morning with some concern when a message popped up on my screen announcing Through the Looking Glass. You bless my heart, Felecia. You are one of those rare women whose deep feeling and love is matched and balanced with her strength and faith.

    Beautiful I see all Gods beauty
    I see fear but quickly remind
    Myself I’m not alone
    I’m thinking and praying for
    You both all day embrace the
    Strength God is giving you
    Love Mom
