A Lesson From Nature

Grief can be exhausting and summer very busy. So this weekend--may we set aside a few minutes for rest and surrendering to God's will, just like a flower lifts its blossom to the sun.

He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower,

Alike they're needful to the flower;

And joys and tears alike are sent

To give the soul fit nourishment.

As come to me of cloud or sun,

Father! Thy will, not mine, be done.

--Sarah Fuller Flower Adams (1805-1848)
