If This Grace Were Ours
Samuel Howard Miller
It is the rare person who, looking back over his life and seeing what he
has done to it,
hasn't sighed for a chance to redeem what he has cheaply used or
carelessly ruined.
If only somehow, somewhere, there was a way to live again the days we have
darkened
with our blind haste - the innumerable occasions when our indifference
trod on all the
pearls of God?s graciousness; the times when our pride, or our fear, or
our meanness
poured the acid of contempt over the fair countenance of another?s soul!
If this grace were
ours, how we would leap to the chance!
