BLOOMING IN THE FIERY HOT PLACES

  A group of plant lovers and botanists’ were on a field trip, looking for a rare plant.

Although the early spring weather in the mountains was still cool and comfortable, the area where they were searching was known to be quite warm.

  The search was rewarded when someone found the first Lewisia rediva bravely crawling up between hot serpentine rocks.  Soon the members of the team were all down on elbows and knees vying for the best close up shots of the delicate flowers.

  How could such a delicate and beautiful flower bloom amid these hot and arid conditions? 

   My Prayer ~ “Lord when life is the most difficult, help me to bloom into a beautiful Christian, allowing your love and power to shine out. Make me like the Lewisia rediva.”

“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”

Romans 12:12
