Have you ever heard a lily bloom?
A dear friend honored me this February 14 with a Valentine’s bouquet. It found its way to the center of the dining room table where its colors and scents have blessed my workspace. Last evening as I typed, I heard the petals of a lily unfolding, like a tiny zipper opening one tooth at a time. I took pictures to document the slow but fascinating process. By this morning, the petals had peeled back in full blossom, as if the birth of new hope.
Are you too busy to hear the lilies bloom? Make some quiet time a priority in your life. Listen to nature speak to you about its Creator. Maybe, just maybe, the Creator has something to say to you.

Wow! That is amazing. You'd never have heard the flower open if you'd been listening to the radio or had the TV on or any number of things we do each day. Way to be quiet and faithful with your work so God could bless you. :-)
I found your site from the ACFW paid critique list. You're looking awfully tempting, but there are so many of you fantastic people. How can I only pick two?
I'm a new member, so whether or not I get you as a critiquer, I'm looking forward to meeting you in Dallas.
