As I watered our flowers and trees tonight, I was amazed at the beauty and overflowing growth of God's incredible creation. (Pictures shown are a couple examples of our arrangements this summer.) Yet I was also reminded of another truth.
What if these beautiful flowers were neglected...never watered...or given nourishment...or allowed in the sunshine...or rid of dead leaves...or cared for as needed? Undoubtedly, they would not survive.
Yet God provides rain, sunshine and people who love to manage the care of His flowers, plants, trees, etc.. There is hope for these beautiful creations...because He takes care of their needs directly and indirectly through others.
I wonder...how many lives feel neglected...malnourished...surrounded by darkness...withering away...and without care? If God cares so much about beautiful flowers and all of His amazing creation...how much more does He care about each precious life He creates?
I wonder...how many people He places in our path for us to care about...for Him? I wonder...how beautiful each life could become...overflowing with purpose, hope and love...if we only took the time to nurture them...for Him?♥~thl
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Romans 15: 13
