When I write, I attempt to show how things look through my own personal lens. Len’s lens, if you will…..
~~~
Often it is a rose-colored lens.
Is there also a color for Joy?
~~~
My lens has purposes.
To bring distant sights and insights near.
Are you looking to see the far-away closely?
~~~
To magnify the unseen.
Are you looking to see small wonders
Which are, even now, so very near?
~~~
To highlight the beauty of His creation.
To make clear the murkiness.
To see through, or past, the darkness.
~~~
But, sometimes my lens is cloudy.
At times, smoky, or smudged.
~~~
In those times, let it be repolished by Truth.
Let it be cleaned through Grace,
Focused by Faith,
Illuminated by The Light, Himself.
~~~
Let my lens redeem the darkness.
Let it resolve Jesus’ reflected image.
Let it be placed in tandem with His lens.
For only through His lens can the full glory of The Father be seen.
Alone in the Rockies.

You really inspire and encourage me! I need that! 🙂
If I can turn a phrase that turns YOUR head, I must be on the right track.
Thanks for ‘visiting’ me, Cindee.

“Is there a color for Joy?” — set words playing with image in my mind. A color for joy…love that!
Thank you for moments of looking through your eyes — “Len’s lens.” Perfect!
