GITANJALI – Song Offerings by Rabindranath Tagore -81

God is present and active in nature at al times and in all places. He is kind and loving, and ever seeks our good. If we place our faith and trust in Him, He will do for us what we cannot, and fill us with His bliss.

ON many an idle day have I grieved over lost time. But it is never lost, my lord. Thou hast taken every moment of my life in thine own hands.

Hands in the heart of things thou art nourishing seeds into sprouts, buds into blossoms, and ripening flowers into fruitfulness.

I was tired and sleeping on my idle bed and imagined all work had ceased. In the morning I woke up and found my garden full with wonders of flowers.
