I see Him in all His Creations...everywhere...anywhere...anytime

In the beauty of a flower, I do feel Him.

In the eyes of sad and ill people, I do see Him.

In a dog pain, I do hear Him.

Who do truly feel, see and hear me? 

God Does. And I'm thankful!

"How did she achieve all this? She says: “Inner Strength.” She adds with rustic wisdom: “God in his infinite grace gave me a vision at the darkest moment in my life. From then on, my life had a purpose. I used whatever strength God gave me to make sure other poor people did not lose their loved ones for lack of medical attention.”
