Even Smaller than a Speck with Earth being a speck how can I hold any value? and yet… Thank you, God, thank you, Jesus thank you, Spirit you lift me up you give me a tiny spark a spark in a speck even a blaze of forest fires makes may You brighten any opportunity to be Your spark during this paltry minuscule life ©Virginia Salter June 6, 2015 Whether on the shoal or on the shore, I'll seek the lighthouse evermore. (See 2013 June 6th APOD post for the point of inspiration.) |
