The Shores of Life

I am not just one tiny piece of sharp rugged glass
that keeps getting rubbed and washed up to shore for no reason.

I am part of a mosaic of so many different glass variations
working together making a beautiful piece of art that glorifies Him.

Even when the waves feel like they are crashing all around me,
washing me against the coast, I am sustained by the surrounding glass body.

Through the shores of life I am filled with gratefulness and
peace because of the support from Father above and others around me.
