Meeting God The Violet

 

The Violet is a beautiful and delicate flower that excuses a sense of shyness and humility . . . 

Quite the contrary to the boldness of the Rose!  As I said yesterday the Rose is elusive to me in its regal standing.  Just look at a Rose garden.  Most are a very well kept manicured environment. 

But the Violet . . . 

I remember seeing Violets growing popping up in the shady area of the woods at the rear of our family home.  There was a beautiful carpet of Violets that had me as a young child dreaming of Princesses and Prince's. 

If we think about the Violet and it's seemingly shyness it is easy to see how similar Love can be.  

For some God's love is elusive.  Some just don't understand it. 

Let us be Thankful today that God gives us these reminders.  Through his Word we can reach closer to him and we can Meet Him in the Garden and rest on a carpet of Violets.  

Isn't that a beautiful picture?
