The Angelous by Jean-Francois Millet
~This painting hung on the wall of my grandparent's living room all the years of my childhood. It has always been my favorite painting in it's powerful and beautiful simplicity.~
The uncertainty of rain keeps us strong
holding on to hope with a tiller in the field
but with hard work and prayer you can't go wrong
knowing something greater is our strength and shield
the humility of needing and knowing grace
is a strength that feeds more than one
for hope is a cousin of tried and true faith
and when two kneel together it shall be done.
