Can you count the dewdrops – v3

Can you count the dewdrops on living flower petals,
the number of stars above or grains of sand on the seashore,
Can you count the hairs on your heads, the number of your breaths,
Do you know how many minutes are in the sum of your days,
How could you, for they are a mystery known only to God...
 
We know only by faith, by striving, by journeying forward,
by trusting, by believing God knows us fully, from before
we were created, in the stillness of our mother's womb,
in secret, the number of hairs on our heads, our minutes,
the path of our lives, the numbers of our days…
 
God alone knows His plans, our calling, our purpose,
while we strive on this earth, while we walk, while we wander,
while we sojourn, while we journey, believing in God,
in God’s promise, for a plan, a path, for a purpose,
our joy, fulfillment, far beyond what we understand…
