My spirit feels drawn and thin. My bones ache from nights of restless sleep. My mind seems out of time from too much thinking. I've been avoiding mirrors. I didn't want to see the damage of internal strife in my outward appearance. But I caught a glimpse of my reflection today, Lord. And I was surprised.
I didn't pay attention to whether I had more lines, wrinkles or gray hair because I could see the transformation You made happen. You have given me an air of peace and wisdom. At some point I settled into my own skin, self, and life. It wasn't a look of resignation on my face; it was the look of understanding and security that faith brings to its holder.
