each reflecting Christ and sometimes more.
We reflect Him as we go with His flow,
without being pressured under the tow.
The undertow of this world is temptation,
trying to get us to yield to frustrations.
Frustrations that will leave our faith beached,
keeping our walk with Christ out of reach.
When under pressure and yielded to Jesus,
the world’s perception will not receive us.
The world thinks that if more pressure is applied,
that we will lose faith and our spirits will die.
Instead of submitting to worldly pleasures,
Jesus uncovers the beach to show treasures.
Treasures He’s seen in us for many years,
and with the right pressure it becomes clear.
Clear as the glass refined by the grains of sand,
shined up and purified by The Master’s hands.
Using the grains of the sands fine texture,
He creates layers of His character.
With each layer the “glass” becomes stronger
and we can withstand more pressure longer.
Till at last when the world looks at me,
Jesus will be the One that they see.
