Sometimes we look at something,
or someone with new eyes.
I have had this little bisque figurine of praying hands
at my booth space for months.
I think it was once a night light as it is hollow
and has a place where a cord could once have been.
I always admired it,
but had one similar at home painted gold.
I never could understand why no one wanted it.
It was only a few dollars.
No one saw in it what I saw.
Last week when I made a visit, it was still there.
I had determined it would come home with me,
where it belonged.
I like to make vignettes of concepts and ideas;
Things I'm thinking about.
This last week with the tragedy in Haiti,
I have been reminded about the importance of prayer.
That God is a "light unto our path",
and that our hands can work
and also pray.
So today we pray not only for the people of Haiti,
but for our neighbors next door...
our friends
and families...
and families...
And for all those we do not know.
May God's peace and presence surround you...
...and may we be aware of all the
little reminders there are in our life,
little reminders there are in our life,
that we can help others who are in need.
Please visit Kathleen at Faded Charm.
Have a blessed White Wednesday.
love,
Debra
