heartprints

When I picked Wyatt up at school he had made this precious picture with his little finger prints, laminated...love it, and on the back was this precious poem. I thought to myself how this can apply to us grown-ups as well. 

Heartprints

Author: Unknown

Whatever our hands touch-we leave fingerprints!

On walls, on furniture, doorknobs, dishes, books-there's no escape!

As we touch we leave our identity.

Oh God, wherever I go today, help me leave heartprints!

Heartprints of compassion, of understanding and love,

Heartprints of kindness and genuine concern.

May my heart touch a lovely neighbor, or a runaway daughter or an anxious mother, or perhaps a friend.

Lord, send me out today to leave heartprints.

And if someone should say "I felt your touch", 

May that one sense YOUR LOVE 

Touching them through ME!
