Looking into God’s Mirror

Posted on by Leonas Lines

Mirror with a green frame

Child

If only

You could see

Yourself in Christ

For who you really are

And not what your mind sees

Then you truly would be in awe

You would never worry or be in fear

For In My eyes you reflect my Beloved

Nonet

I am currently writing a Daily Devotional for my online ministry titled “Who Am I”.

For 30 days it will share scriptures and messages about who believers are in Christ. It is an eye opening and inspiring journey to learn all the blessings and benefits believers receive in Christ that most don’t even realize, walk in or live out daily. This devotional has been inspiring me daily as I write it and I feel blessed to be able to write and share it with others each day. If any of you are interested in receiving it daily you can find it at this link: Smile God Loves You Daily Devotionals

Did you ever think you’d see

A goat standing in a tree?

There’s a good reason why

These goats are way up high

Pooh Bear Drawing, Shadorma Poem

Sometimes

You need to just sit

Pondering

Not doing

Waiting for inspiration

To bring something

Shadorma

“Ah yes, doing nothing often leads to the very best of something” —Pooh

(I was so inspired while watching the movie “Christopher Robin” recently! I loved the story and found myself pausing the DVD many times to write down various quotes of things that Pooh said. One such quote inspired this poem 😊)

New Year—No Fear

Moses and Red Sea

Stand still and you will see

The salvation of the Lord

Don’t look back, look at Me

Stand still and you will see

Deliverence! Free you’ll be

From that chronic pursuing hoard

Stand still and you will see

The salvation of the Lord

Triolet

And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. Exodus 14:13
