May the LORD give strength to his people! May the LORD bless his people with peace!”

  1. These are encouraging scriptures you shared, Sara. And the beautiful photo gives peace and rest just to look at it. It is amazing to think on the strength that the Lord gives a lily bulb. One small bulb, hidden in the earth, emerges and produces such a spectacular bloom. And that lush vine climbs onward and upward in the strength that the Lord provides to fulfill its purpose.

    1. Don’t you think awesome that God even calls himself flower names. “I am the Rose of Sharon! I am the Lily of the Valley!

      I found this lily by the front door of my son and family’s new home. I was so enthralled by its beauty and posture as it bowed to say and welcome it’s new family, I Am your good shepherd . I keep watch over you by day and by night! Peace to all that enter into my presence!

      May our children be forever under the watchful eye of The Great Good Shepherd! Yes, the One that says I am the lily…

  2. Beautiful picture above and awesome color on the lily! Even more beautiful are the Words shared above from God’s Holy Word! I agree in prayer with you, “ May our children be forever under the watchful eye of The Great Good Shepherd! ” and I will add our grandchildren, as well.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

    1. Amen and Amen Tammy!

      And, all God’s children! You got me thinking of how many ways God’s Word mentions to children and children of…This helps me to learn and pause to expand my prayers🙏🏼
