“Raindrops” by Rebecca R. (aka Beckra)
Each raindrop holds within its entity
an image of the vast and ageless sea.
The quote above was printed on a card I received from a friend when we were teenagers. The words struck me and I committed them to memory. When I received the riveting photo postcard featuring raindrops in the garden from my pen friend, Rebecca R., the words immediately came to mind.
Although I read, memorized, and understood the words, I’m only now seeing the significance of the quote as it speaks to my relationship with Christ. If in a single raindrop we can imagine the vast sea, can others see in my pitiful humanity a reflection of Christ?
Lovely image, lovely words, lovely sentiment.

I love that photo. I really, really do. I wish I knew where the quote comes from, though. I should go on a word hunt.
