A Grain of Sand Who am I that God should hear The prayers I utter through the year? I am but a grain of sand, But still a part of what He's planned. He counts each grain and knows that we Together, make a mighty sea Of people who revere His ways And raise our voices, filled with praise. For who He is and what He's done. For love so great, He gave His Son, That we may all receive the choice, To walk with Him and hear His voice! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (08-21-2002 01:36 PM).] |

How very beautiful this was, and I found I had to read it a couple of times, once silent, then aloud - then I smiled. Thank you for a warm moment in time. The most valuable thing you own is a smile, wear it, and share it. |

This is so inspirational thank you!! and you are right, we see ourselves like maybe something really small and insignificant to God, but truth is that we are His all and He loves us with such might. miriam coronado |
