See how the flowers of the field grow

A mild winter has yielded May flowers before April showers could even make an appearance and  we've been enjoying the graceful iris blooms in our backyard. Spring's beauty provides a multitude of opportunities to reflect on the bountiful provision of our Creator.  Grace & peace dear friends!

“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.  -Matthew 6:28-34 (NIV)
