Every day I see people
for whom every day life
is a massive challenge
because of disability of body
or mind
or both.

I wonder what My God sees
as he looks, through eyes of love,
at these precious children of his
who try so hard to achieve
what many of us take for granted?

Does My God see dis-ability?
or My God see different-ability?

I wonder …
does My God see
indomitable spirit
that shines bright like a diamond?
Do we?
In our busy lives
do we ever take the time
to look?
