Blaze of Glory

Painted

A flaming sky

burns the edges of

my consciousness

re-shaping, escaping

ordinary hues

melting rigid scars

into shimmering

feathered lines

across my heart

simply ornate

intricately plain

I believe You are

I guess that's faith

I know my happyness waits

I guess that's hope

I know Your sacrifice

I guess that's love

the colors build

on colors built

I am nothing

a vapor on the wind

a blink in time

my eyes spill

as I stand alone

in the least of me

seeing

what you have

painted for me

a blaze of Glory.

“For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.”

‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
