Something to Think About
Go... Make a Difference

Let us not become weary in doing
good, for at the proper time we will
reap a harvest if we do not give up.
(Galations 6:9)

Fingerprint Friday: Flowers

By MAD21

I am ashamed that I don't know more about them, but I love flowers. I am allergic to most of them, especially the ones that have a strong fragrance. But I love looking at the many different variety of flowers that are around us all the time. At first, they look so simple. Easily unseen in a busy day. But if you take a moment to really look at them, you will see how complex they are, they come in all shapes and sizes and every shade of the rainbow. Few things can compare to the beauty and color like flowers. I've heard them referred to as the paintbrush of God, and I can understand why.

So as the season of flowers ends in most regions of our country, we will take a moment to stop and look. And praise the God who created them.

Fellow blogger Beki at Pampering You has a really great weekly post she does every Friday called "Fingerprint Friday." We are to look around and see where we can see God's fingerprints. Is it in nature? Kids? Animals? Anywhere? Go find out where Beki saw God this week, and be sure to check out the other bloggers who linked their stories as well.

I agree, including on allergies. But they are so lovely to look at, and even smell if one at a time and not all together.

That was a very nice Fingerprint! I enjoyed the flowers, too!

I'm grateful to not have allergies and so I enjoy both the smell and the splendor. To think that God clothes the fields with them....amazing. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the moment to look and be thankful! I don't know all their names but love them too and am sad their outdoor blooming has come to an end now that we've had some frosty nights. I can't wait till Spring!
