:)! Had very dry summers here for about 7 yrs. A homeless person built a campfire near town. Unfortunately it spread and created a huge fire. It lasted for days and truthfully was very scary! You’d go to the post office and it smelled like smoke. You’d go to Walgreen’s and it smelled like smoke. Everything smelled like smoke. Our town so appreciated the fire fighters that came here to help put out the fire. So I understand your concern and I will pray for rain. *hugs* to you, too!

I totally get that story. We’ve had LOTS of wildfires this spring.
Every time we have a stiff breeze we get the fire warnings. So
far it’s just grassland, but if we don’t get rain, who knows
what might happen!

How To Bloom
March 22, 2011
My family and I live in an apartment, so our flower garden consists of what we can grow in indoor pots. For a long time our plants would not flower despite watering and fertilizing. Then we discovered that the soil had to be raked and turned over if the plants were to bloom. Now our potted plants are a pure joy to look at with their healthy leaves and blooming flowers.
Sometimes we need a little raking and turning in our own lives to make us bloom. Writing to the harassed believers in his day, Peter said, Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; but rejoice (1 Peter 4:12-13).
Like the soil in our potted plants, these Christians were having their lives turned over. Gods purpose in doing that was to allow their faith to result in praise and glory to Him at the revelation of Jesus Christ (1:7).
God wants to loosen the things that can choke our lives and that prevent us from radiating joy. To do this, He sometimes has to allow pain and troubletrials that help stir up the soil of our lives. If this is what you are experiencing today, rejoice. Surrender to His touch and acquire a joy and fruitfulness you never imagined possible.
Turning the soil and pulling the weeds
Helps garden flowers to grow,
And if were to see growth in our lives
Trials and testings well know. Sper
Those who bless God in their trials
will be blessed by God through their trials.
Read: 1 Peter 1:1-9
Rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christs sufferings.
1 Peter 4:13

Lovely.
With Spring here, I am reminded of Jill Barklem's books, one for each season. But my daughter used to love them. They had wonderful illustrations. Too bad they are out of print.
