Splinters from the Cross Little headaches, little heartaches, Little griefs of every day, Little trials and vexations, How they throng around our way! One great cross, immense and heavy, So it seems to our Weak will, Might be borne with resignation, But these many small ones kill. Yet all life is formed of small things, Little leaves make up the trees. Many tiny drops of Water Blending, make the mighty seas. So these many little burdens Pressing on our hearts so hard, All uniting form a 1ife's work, Meriting a grand reward. Let us not then by impatience Mar the beauty of the whole, But for love of Jesus bear all In the silence of the soul. Asking Him for grace sufficient To sustain us through each' loss, And to treasure each small olfering As a splinter from His Cross. Selected
