Reflections

I got up this morning

And when I looked into the mirror

I no longer saw a helpless, frightened little girl

But I saw a strong and valiant woman

Whose hope and strength were from the very source of life itself

Jesus Christ Himself who saw her through the mighty waters

Of affliction, oppression and depression

This same woman can say boldly, “If God is for me then who can stand against me.”

For by uttering the very name of Jesus

Demons shutter and flee.

Praise be to Lord Jesus Christ who has carried and nourished

The helpless and frightened little girl

Into a mighty woman of God.
