Changing Mirrors

Pearls and Dreams


To my Lupie Friend Melissa. I wrote this about a year or so ago, thought you'd understand ... ;)

Changing Mirrors
by Peggikaye Eagler

I stand and look closely,
Never sure of what I think,
What I think I see now,
Is enough to make my heart sink.

It never seems to reflect,
What others tell me they see.
It only tells me what is wrong,
From the pain, I'd like to flee.

Reading God's word tells me,
I'm a creation of God's plan,
His plan for me to shine light,
While protected by His hand.

Learning to trust God's word.
He said I am His Image,
He says he's called my name,
He's leading my pilgrimage.

The truth is not always easy,
I have to learn to trust,
God's word says I am precious,
I have learned faith is a must.

So looking in the mirror,
Is not what I base my claim,
But the Word of God most Holy,
His relection, my claim to fame.
