this morning as I pulled the soft blue cotton shirt
over my head, the one that has a flower pot on the front
and the words
love + grace = life + joy
a fresh mental reminder came flooding
babies were held close to this one
I have struggled for weeks ...
how to find words for the fullness of my heart
to be able to share what my eyes have seen
hoping to describe how humbling it was for
my hands and feet to be "HIS hands and HIS feet"
my hands and feet to be "HIS hands and HIS feet"
and how HE overcame the language barrier
with tears and a touch!
I will praise You, O LORD, with my whole heart;
I will show forth (recount and tell aloud) all Your
marvelous works and wonderful deeds!
Psalm 9:1
Praying HE keeps it fresh in my heart
and continues to give me the words to describe
The Great Adventure!
