A mirror of Christ

Made in the image
a mirror of Christ
perhaps nascent
growing in our hearts
a piece of the Creator
in the clay of our lives
growing with us
the Spirit within us still

All of us children
each one given
the breath of life
an ember of the light
planted in our hearts
growing within us
if we heed His calling
humble before God
and love for our neighbors

A lesson of the story
the judgment at the end
when we all come before Jesus
our Master, our King
how we treated others
the least of His friends
to see the gates of heaven
that we may enter in.
