Amazing Grace

If you haven't seen the movie Amazing Grace, I highly recommend that you do so. It was a very inspirational. While I am here, I thought I would share a poem that is very poignant:

"Thou knowest that through our tears
Of hasty, selfish weeping
Comes surer sin, and for our petty fears
Of loss thou hast in keeping
A greater gain than all of which we dreamed;
Thou knowest that in grasping
The bright possessions which so precious seemed
We lose them; but if, clasping
Thy faithful hand, we tread with steadfast feet
The path of thy appointing,
There waits for us a treasury of sweet
Delight, royal annointing
With oil of gladness and of strength."-Helen Hunt Jackson
