Maine Gossip
Each Has Their Place

I've been reading a wondrous story
And. though old. it will ever be NV,
Twas when the Heavenly Master
The Galilean lands passed through.
1t told of His love and kindness
Unto all the children of men
l thought how great was the blessing
To those who were living there then.
Then as I turned DER the pages
This verse l then happened to see:
"Inasmuch as we've done to my breth.
rem.
Even SO yc have done unto me-"
It was there this lesson was taught me.
That God in His infinite plan
Desires that each of His children
Do the very best that he can.
Though we may not be like the boulder
That towers DER the massive wall.
Some place we may fill if we only will,
Though it's only niche: after All.
