To Understand

Letter 4469

I have machines in my home that I do not know the workings of.

How do the lights burn? How do the faucets flow? And yet I use them daily.

Outside, the same: How does the hare find the fence gap? How do the clouds carry rain?

Is it necessary that I understand the miracles I constantly see? Let me not try to pry them open.


Consider:

Can I accept miracles today?
