When life as it really is becomes a fact that I accept as naturally as I breathe, events lose their power… (For Today, page 6)
We see through glass darkly —
murky or naively pink-tinged
pigments impede vision equally.
Paul said, though, maturity happens.
Glass clears. Life as life is?
Don’t do for others because
you feel sorry for them,
don’t expect acclaim unearned,
don’t assume control when God
seems distracted. Accept limitations,
recognize glass ceilings break,
Know power isn’t in what happens
but in the power in charge.
