Flowers for Beautiful Ladies



“The LORD will guide you always;
he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land
and will strengthen your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like a spring whose waters never fail.”
–Isaiah 58:11

What an awesome promise! Maggie Shafferman of Hunter’s Run Nursery shared this truth from God’s word while she showed and taught us about new perennials on Wednesday, May 18. We also headed to the porch to swap flowers brought from our own flower beds. There were a lot of options to choose from – thanks ladies!

Lori also encouraged us from Luke 24. Because of the words: “He is Risen” (vs. 6) we have great hope. The disciples could not identify Jesus when he walked with them after his resurrection. The disciples’ doubts about Jesus were robbing them of the


JOY that was right in front of them! When they recognized him, their hearts burned within them (vs. 31,32) What is robbing you of your JOY? Jesus is there, with his hand out to you, wanting you to have JOY.

“The grass withers and the flowers fall,
but the word of our God stands forever.” –Isaiah 40:8
