There is joy in seeing another person's life bloom and grow because you have been committed to their best. (Gary Smalley, January 10, 2008 devotion "Honor" http://www.smalleyonline.com/articles/devos/jan10.html)
I love bulb plants...they grow and reproduce over and over...what is only one turns into a multitude. My favorite is canna lillies. There are yellow ones in my yard. Each year they die out during the winter, and then in the Spring, they explode! I love teaching...I get the honor of investing in someone and watch the flower-well, sometimes I see-the blossoms! Just one that opens and spreads it petals towards the Son to absorb the light of His presence, makes all those dark, cloudy, fruitless days worth it!
