Sadly to then miss the rose
Nestled in their midst

I Surrender
May 2, 2015My efforts felt huge
yet my ability
like my strength
is so weak.
Imagine my surprise
when you chose me anyway!
Despite my flaws
through you
beautiful things grow!

A Rose Is MORE Than A Rose!
January 9, 2014Luther Burbank: “Flowers always make people better,
happier, and more helpful: they are sunshine,
food and medicine to the soul.”
I like this quote because it states something I have
come to believe but in a different way.
I believe thatGod created flowers
solely for the purpose
of making us smile,
feel warm,
and know that we are loved.
They represent God’s kisses to me.
