Tonight, I heard and read about what a friend was going through and felt very helpless about the fragility of life.
Then I thought about the flowers I had seen while travelling in Europe...

And this came to mind...
Matthew 6:28-33
"So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?"
"Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."
Indeed, God has clothed the beautiful flowers and allowed them to display His glory. What more will He do for us whom He has made in His image? It is probably beyond our imagination.
