In Light of Spring- Ponder This

Take another look at those sprouts of green in the middle picture above. Go ahead.

Now, with that in mind, ponder these words from Marcie Hans:

Fueled
by a million
manmade
wings of fire—
the rocket tore a tunnel
through the sky—
and everybody cheered.
Fueled
only by a thought from God—
the seedling
urged its way
through thicknesses of black—
and as it pierced
the heavy ceiling of the soil—
and launched itself
up into outer space—
no
one
even
clapped.
