inside out and backwards

head down
focus on poor mirror, in.
see limitations
what I wish I was.
sad, self-loathing
evil

head down
bowed in repentance
see human limits
see Christ's power in my limitations
glory in infirmities
no complaint
no pity
Jesus

head up
He made me
my limitations/infirmities are gifts/strength
i offer my gifts as a sacrifice
thanksgiving

2 Corinthians 12:9,10
