.....ah yes.....God places "them" close bywhen we need encouragement.
In recent times my dear friend
has undergone cancer treatment.
It was then she received the following
from her niece.......and has now
sent this beautiful message along to me.
-
She was at the hospital before 6:00 am
this morning, and
in her hands, a gift for me.
"Handmade Florentine Soaps"
Lily of the Valley
Made in Italy
-
Relaxing at home, after surgery,
....I read her little note.
-
Here is the reason for this special fragrance-"Consider the lilies,
how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even
Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then
God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is
thrown in the oven, how much more will He clothe you..." Luke 12: 27-28
-
Dee Dee, each time you smell the Lily fragrance, may it remind you that
God is paying attention to every detail of your life. He is attending to
your needs, He is aware of your fears, He is moved by your emotions, and
He hears your prayers. If simple flowers that fade captivate His thoughts,
how much more are you on His Mind every moment of each day and night.
So when you're feeling discouraged or losing hope, smell the beautiful
fragrance of the soap. Bathe your hands and lift them to your face to
enjoy the magnificent scent. May the Lily scent draw you to hope. May it
remind you that He, The Lily of the valley, is with you. May his fragrance
linger in the air as you fold your hands to pray. May the fragrance remind
you of Him and His presence.
-
So, my dear friends and family,
I send this along to you,
knowing that we all,
from time to time,
might need
this encouragement.
Lord bless.....Dee Dee
