Each delicate falling snowflake decends in grace takes its place to change an entire landscape. Each little sin confessed is erased never traced. Forgiven, we're richly blessed. Each little note, timed precisely, each rest content each instrument makes a beautiful symphony. Each little thought entertained of hatred or sacred affects our action train. Each thought forms our personality like, Jesus paid or I'm afraid. As one thinketh, so is he. Each thing done in Christ's name melts hearts gives starts helping us and others to change. |

I liked this.. it's true that the little things count for much in the individual. When I hear about good things done in Christ's name, that's all it takes to melt my heart. Way 2 go. |

Amen! Too true! Great poem! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

You're all so kind. Thank you for your replies and reading my lines. I'm always so encouraged by these. As I read others breathtaking works, I always wonder if my plain jane lines are worth posting. |

Beautiful, so many little things in life are taken for granted in the rush rush world we live in today but none more than the one BIG thing, Christ's gift to us. This was a great reminder to slow down and take time to appreciate both. TY. Michael |

Well, it's snowing big flakes today and wanted to bring this back up front, so maybe some more could read it! <*\\\>< Where there is faith, there is love. Where there is love, there is peace. Where there is peace, there is GOD. Where there is GOD, there is no need. Hallmark |

I lvoe the formation of this poem....especially centered!! It's got great words too and especially a great meaning. Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of being a king, and then became one? - Neil Diamond |

Sandgrain, I'm glad someone did ua all a favor and revived this beautiful poem. It is stylish and says so much--a very good point and emphasis you share-Thanks so much! David "GOD GIVES- but man must open his hand." (German Proverb) |
