LITTLE FACES

Little faces thrown away
From shelter and nurturing nest
Established in God's likeness
An image dispossessed
Who is it that gave you life? 
Is it not the Lord Almighty?
Perfect, tiny knitted one
Yet, robbed, your worth and dignity
Timeless spirits fluttering home
Before a chance to dance or sing
No memories saved or stories to tell
But presented before your King
Little souls are tossed away
It's human hearts that must be changed
Fervent prayers must never wane
Our having life is why He came!

Carol Grandell Scott

"Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them..."  Matthew 6:26 NKJV

hanging from a fence
nests for the birds

"Lo, children are a heritage from the Lord; the fruit of the womb is a reward." Psalm 127:3

Lord of all creation,
please give us
grateful hearts.
