We visited good friends in Austin Texas last April. As we traveled around the area sightseeing, we noticed the beautiful wildflowers blooming along every highway. But nothing prepared me for the colorful splendor of the Wildseed Farms, about seven miles outside Fredericksburg.
Wildseed Farms is the largest working wildflower farm in the
U.S. The farm has more than 200 cultivated acres at its Hill Country
headquarters.
Take in this verse from Matthew, then enjoy the photos of God's palette:
"If God gives such attention
to the appearance of wildflowers—most of which are never even seen—don't you
think he'll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you?
What I'm trying to do here is to
get you to relax, to not be so preoccupied with getting, so you can
respond to God's giving.
People who don't know God and the way he works fuss over
these things, but you know both God and how he works.
Steep your life in God-reality,
God-initiative, God-provisions. Don't worry about missing out. You'll find all
your everyday human concerns will be met.
Matthew 6 v 30 - 33 (The Message)
Just think what wildflowers show us about God - His tender care, His precise attention to every detail, His creative and endless imagination.
If He "gives such attentions to the
appearance of wildflowers...don't you think he'll attend to you."
What do wildflowers tell you about God?
