I was just thumbing through some photos I took a
few months ago. Many of the
images were of flowers—roses, asters, marigolds, sunflowers, calendulas. I miss their vibrant colors and layers
of delicate petals frequented by honeybees shopping for nectar. Sigh.
I asked myself the obvious: Why does a flowerholic like me live in such an intemperate climate?
I’m not sure.
Thankfully, I do have Blossom, who is sweet and
lovely all year round!

“Even though the
fig trees have no blossoms…
and the fields lie empty and barren…
yet I will rejoice in the Lord!” –HABAKKUK 3:17-18 (NLT)
