The Green Grass of Home

"He makes the grass to grow...
This is a quiet thing
not rapid or spectaclar,
yet who of us
with all our knowledge and skill
could induce growth in one blade of grass?
God's miracles are often small
and commonplace,
but always alive...
like a blade of grass."
~Gladys and Gordon DePhee


"He makes grass grow upon the hills." Psalms 147:8
While the grass is still green, and summer is still showing her lovely displays...I wish you joy in the little things of today.

What a thought provoking and encouraging concept...if God can make blades of grass grow out of dirt, He must know what He's doing with my life :)
