Rain soaked flowers!

John was on the island of Patmos , his island prison for preaching the Gospel of Jesus, he writes about what he saw in a vision there. I saw an angel flying in the middle of the sky and this angel had a message to preach to every nation, language speaking group, and each person. And this was the message in a loud voice:

Fear God,

Give glory to Him.

Why? For the hour of His judgement is come

Worship Him that made heaven , and earth , and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Revelations 14: 6-7 (Sandy’s understanding)
Three Verbena stalks flying to the left, five zinnia sitting in the middle, 3 stalks of lavender and bright pink bouncing bess joyfully all around.

I went out to pick the flowers with rain soaking them and me. It was big drops of rain but not fierce. Wonderful !!!

I have just been out to water the garden in the rain with a watering can. Why?

The rain collection barrels were full to over flowing and some of my plants needed more than they were getting. The barrels will hopeful fill again! (I didn’t empty them, just took off a few inches!)

I have photographed with the lights on inside because the clouds are “rain full.”

The middle!

Here are some thoughts on dependence.

The best relationship is one that does not foster too much independence nor too much dependence, but exists in healthy interdependence.

Karen Salmansohn (author of self-help books and designer)

Things derive their being and nature by mutual dependence and are nothing in themselves.

Nagarjuna (actor )

True happiness is … to enjoy the present without anxious dependence upon the future.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4BC – 65 AD Roman stoic philosopher )

Our garden is soaking up the water. I am happy to be here. Thank you for looking at my post on this good day. I hope your day is blessed whenever you read this post. Sandy🤗

  1. Just love your arrangement and its description! Made me feel happy😁🥰
    “True happiness is … to enjoy the present without anxious dependence upon the future.“ – I need to work on this one!

    1. Ah , me too. The future is only there in relation to the choices we make today. We with God’s help and prayer will do the right thing today to make this world (our world) better tomorrow. Love you Shelly have a blessed day.🤗🤗

  2. “The best relationship is one that does not foster too much independence nor too much dependence, but exists in healthy interdependence.” This is a great quote and many people struggle to find the right balance.

  3. Your flowers are gorgeous! We’ve been getting a lot of rain, too, a nice change from most years. My little garden is turning yellow from so much water, as a matter of fact! But my veggies are still producing! Have a beautiful Sunday! 🌞
