We ask for a piece of sand
and he gives us a beach.
We ask for a drop of water
and he gives us an ocean.
We ask for time
and he gives us life eternal.
And it is so easy for us
to fall in love with the gift
and forget the giver.

Thanks for stopping by, Jen. God is so good!
So true, Jean. It’s a process — He is patient for us to realize what true love really is.
