He was just a little boy...

He was just a little boy, On a week's first day. Wandering home from Bible school, And dawdling on the way. 

He scuffed his shoes into the grass; He even found a caterpillar. He found a fluffy milkweed pod, And blew out all the 'filler.'   A bird's nest in a tree overhead, So wisely placed up so high. Was just another wonder, That caught his eager eye. 

A neighbor watched his zig zag course, And hailed him from the lawn; Asked him where he'd been that day And what was going on.   'I've been to Bible School ,' He said and turned a piece of sod. He picked up a wiggly worm replying, 'I've learned a lot about God.' 

'M'm very fine way,' the neighbor said, 'for a boy to spend his time.' 'If you'll tell me where God is, I'll give you a brand new dime.'   Quick as a flash the answer came! Nor were his accents faint. 'I'll give you a dollar, Mister, If you can tell me where God ain't.'   ... And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God:     for with God all things are possible. Mark 10:27
Today, I want to make a difference.
Here I am Lord, use me!
