Your Word says a lot about sand.

You said Abraham’s offspring would be more numerous than the sand.

David said Your thoughts outnumber the sand.

Jesus said that a person who ignored his words would be like one building a house on sinking sand.

I say that the wet sand slips perfectly between my toes.

And it’s sinking reminds me both that I can be washed clean, and that I should not take my stances so seriously. I cannot stake my identity upon them, because in a moment, I will need new ones.

The sand reminds me both of my importance and my impermanence.

My print is perfect.

And in a little while it will be gone.

But today, I can make my mark.

And I thank You.
