When you look at me.
The humble servant
Or a prideful master.
The one quick to listen
Or the one with an angry temper.
Do you see through me
The Son I represent?
Or do you see a man
Who's the lord if himself?
The glorious radiance
Of the Son I should reflect.
But do you see me
Instead of him?
My selfish pride
Often stands in the way
Of reflecting his light
So that all can share
The warmth of his gaze
And the wealth of his love.
Whom do you see
When you look at me?
Do you see Him
Or do you see me?
I hope this is helpful to anyone who might read this. I got thinking about this when reading Colossians. I thought, "Am I reflecting Christ like I should?" I honestly couldn't answer that question to my liking so I wrote this as a reminder of what my goal is. Enjoy and have a Happy Thanksgiving.
