The Difference Maker

Location

I look in the mirror

And I am you

Pierced with pain

I’ve come unglued

 

Full of question

I cannot see

Full of anguish

I take a leap

 

He is here

Holding me

No longer losing

I am free

 

Peace and love

Faith and grace

I am joy

Here is my face

 

It is not easy

It is not free

You must surrender

You and me

 

Battles and wars

Will always rage

I am not perfect

I am unpaved

 

Never alone

I remember my creed

The Difference Maker

That is me

 

Patience and compassion

Love and forgiveness

Creating and teaching

Humble and selfless

 

Always striving

To be my best

Make it out alive

That is my quest

 

I look in the mirror

And I am you

Full of hope

It is truth

Thought provoking and moving. Challenges everyone to stop and take a real look inside themselves. Can I be a difference maker? Who can decide?
