These are the small graces
Little moments when the miracles come
These are the small graces
Small graces leading me to the larger ones.
Small graces surely have a meaning...
They are a reminder to the heart
There is more to life than meets the eye.
Small Graces by Bob Bennett
Some of this week's small graces:
An "anonymous" gift certificate to Amazon.com for my birthday
The gift of Chinese food from my mom when I was sick
A letter from a friend with poems and quotes
Raindrops
Oh, can the first raindrops of the season ever be called a small grace? It smells as extravagantly terrific as folks always say, and we are throwing the windows wide open, trying to capture the heavenly fragrance. Some members of the family have been so eager for rain that they ran around making the living room spotless, pulled out a blanket and a James Herriot book and a cup of tea. Perfection. I think she has been waiting a long time.
