More Of Him

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope someday that I will find

What I have longed to see

When I look in the mirror at

The one looking at me.

 

I try to live my life in Him,

That He can live in me,

But that has proven harder than

I thought that it would be.

 

I try to offer more patience,

To others on my way,

But some days my patience grows thin,

I am ashamed to say.

 

I try to find a place for grace

Such as I have received,

But some folks leave me frustrated

And feeling quite aggrieved.

 

I must be a disappointment

To Him, much to my shame,

Yet He still offers me the grace

That I so need to claim.

 

I keep on looking every day

Hoping that I will see

More of Him in my reflection

And less of sinful me.

 

1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming.
