One thing I love about flowers is that they’re an instant reminder to me of how creative God is. So many colors, shapes, textures, sizes, scents … And that’s just the flowers themselves, not the leaves and branches or stems! It blows my mind.

My godmother passed away last weekend after a hard-fought battle with cancer. She loved her flowers and even though she hadn’t been able to get out in the yard and work in them for quite a while, she was surrounded by beautiful flower arrangements that friends and family sent each week.

I took a few pictures of some arrangements so wanted to share them here. Don’t you just love how God makes them all so beautiful and then gives people the gifts for arranging them into something you’ll treasure? He’s so cool that way.
