I AM NOT
I am not my gifts
I am not my talents
I am not my "close but no cigar"
Attempts to reach perfection
At best I'm just a mirror
Mostly smudged and far from crystal clear
It's not me you're meant to see - but eventually there will be
A faithful, true reflection
Of the Lamb who once was slain
And forever raised to life again
The One who'll be there to greet me
At the resurrection
"I will make you as a light for the nations,
that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth."
(Isaiah 49:6)
