Between the stones and dry hard place
God places all the gentle things,
The pretty things, the softest-
That He alone can bring.
We may feel that life is really tough
Then we see a baby's chubby cheek,
Our heart will start to melt-
The softness is so sweet.
We may think a day too hard to bear
Then a flower flutters in the wind,
Its perfection reaches us-
Our heart begins to sing.
We may consider life too tough
Then a sunray filters through,
To touch us with a warmth
And our spirit is renewed.
We may feel it's cold and rugged
When we get an email from a friend,
Our eyes o'erflow with tears
By all the love they send.
We may see the darkness as too deep
But on the breeze a whisper comes,
We hear the voice of God
And we know we're always loved.

Poetry from The Heart
Life is not always hard and difficult,
blessings are the
soft spots between the rocks.
