Hard rocks... Hope given

The other day I was sitting by a creek I've visited many times. This particular time I noticed this rock and I was taken aback by what I saw. A rock that had moss growing from it. When we think of rocks, we don't think of them as something that "gives" to anything or anyone. And yet, here this rock was providing a home for the moss.

And what struck me even more was the concept of a hard heart that can be softened. And this my friends gave me hope. I don't know about you but I have dear ones in my life that seem to have hearts that are impenetrable. As I looked upon this rock, my heart filled with hope... every heart has the potential to become soft again... no matter how hard.
