The streets and sidewalks of this great city were quiet on the morning we took this walk, gasping for breath as we climbed one hill after another.
It was a different scene on the day we arrived, a busy, bustling saturday afternoon. The beautiful weather had drawn everyone outdoors, and it was hard to walk against the press of people all around us.
The air was filled with the harmony of different languages blended together into one lovely melody. The different races and nationalities formed a colorful human rainbow. We took a seat to watch them all walk by – so many of them – and I thought about the Father who knows each one by name.
“How is it possible, Lord?” I thought. So many, and this is just one small corner of your great big world. How can You see us all; know every heart; hear every whispered prayer; love each one with such longing?
I'm over at Laced With Grace today. Join Me?
Blessings,
Linda
