I walked out the door this morning and was taken by a winter rose in my front garden. It had rained all night, actually it had rained for a week with only spots of sunshine, but here was one rose, the only flower in my garden. Daniel gave me this rose bush when he was two years old for Mother's Day. I wanted to remember it. On this dreary, cold day, God blessed me with the gift of a Winter Rose. Unexpected. Beautiful. Simple. Isn't that just like you God to brighten my day like that. Thank-you for every gift that comes to me in this way. May I never be too busy to notice.Sunday, February 3, 2008
