Letter 4520
I saw a vole running along the wall.
Its world is filled with huge objects, the wheelbarrow the size of a mountain.
My world, too — how large is my mountainside when viewed by you, Lord?
❖
How small am I? And yet so loved.
Let me embrace my position in your world, Lord.
Consider:
Can I be grateful today?
