Falling in Love with the Giver – Quote of the Week

May 12, 2012 By Jean Wise



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.
