The worst enemy

The Man in the Mirror

 

When I look in the mirror,

who do I see?

Do I see a stranger,

or do I see me?

Is the man that I see there

loving and kind,

or is the one staring back,

a man out of his mind.

One thing I’m sure of

as I stand there and stare,

if it’s not me I’m seeing

I’d best turn to prayer…

‘cause it a sign I’ve lost hold of

some things to hold dear…

like, being more Christ-like,

and keeping Him near.

If I can’t be comfy

seeing me in my skin,

it means I am living

with way too much sin.
