Broken, incomplete,
shattered, rough edges,
cutting, scattered.
Different shapes,
reflecting different colors.
But the Master takes them,
fits them together according to His pattern and vision,
and from the broken pieces,
creates a masterpiece of color and light.
And when the Son shines through,
the colors reflect on the faces,
of those inside.
Bound together,
the brokenness is forgotten
as each contributes to the whole.
Together they reveal the stories of God’s love
and give us a beautiful image of our Redeemer who lives among us.
Vivid reds, yellows, oranges,
combine with muted browns and grays,
each in its place,
even the smallest sliver
a sparkle in the Savior’s eye.
Stained glassed windows,
a simple reminder of who we were
and a promise of what we can become
in the church of the loving Redeemer.
