A DROP LOSES ITSELF IN THE SEA

I love the ocean and one time while in Los Angeles, I went to the ocean. This wave came up and went up to my kness and got sand in my brace. And a drop of that ocean went on my hand and it was like a little rainbow in the sun.

I thought, "Oh, Lord, I shouldn't have that," and I threw it back in the ocean.

And the Lord said to me, "Angelica, did you see that drop?"

And I said, "Yes Lord."

And He said, "Do you see the ocean?"

"Yes, Lord."

"That drop is all your sins and weaknesses," He said, "and the ocean is My mercy. If you looked for that drop, would you find it?"

And I said, "No, Lord."

God's mercy is infinite; He absorbs and forgets our sins. If kids knew that, they would rise upin this life, band together and do something great for God and mankind.
