Little do we realize
That the glory and the power
Of He who made the universe
Lies hidden in a flower.
Helen Steiner Rice
The heavens are telling the glory of God; they are a marvelous display of his craftsmanship. —Psalm 19:1
The miracle of love is like the miracle of a flower, it thrives upon the sunshine of a smile...it entwines itself around the heart. Its roots are secured in the memories of yesterday and its petals breathe the promise of joy-filled tomorrows. To be loved is to know happiness and contentment. To give love is to know the joy of sharing oneself. It is through the miracle of love that we discover the fullness of life.
GOOD MORNING !
I’ve been at my Dad’s since Saturday morning so my entry is a little late today . I'm getting ready for church and after that will go back to Dad's til evening.
Tomorrow the plan is to work outside. The porch needs a good scrubbing off as well as my patio furniture. Hopefully with the warmer days there will be plenty of opportunities to sit outside and watch the birds in the evening. We are blessed by some tiny little hummers that are such fun to see.
The flowers are blooming. Our azalea bushes are beautiful right now and the Bachelor buttons are out in full force. Before long I’ll have some tiny roses on my rosebush. The hostas have grown a lot and need to be separated once more. We seem to have them scattered here there and everywhere. It truly looks like I’ll have more work than I have energy, but I’ll try…
Today is the 2nd anniversary of this journal. I used to have one here before this one and deleted it. Regretfully, I can never retrieve that one. Here is a link to my first entry in this one. http://journals.aol.com/marainey1/GoodMorningSunshine/entries/2005/05/27/new-journal/288
I have a picture there of Our Sweetheart and I sort of like the way it is now with the new picture element we have.
Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get. (Life's Little Instruction Calendar, 1999)
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful; they are sunshine, food, and medicine for the soul.
Luther Burbank
May your day be blessed with a few SMILES and lots of SUNSHINE to warm your heart !
