Before I Forget: Sharing my love for God, family, gardens and my sweet Momma
All Things Bright and Beautiful
Peonies and Iris have a way of pointing my heart to the Creator of all that beauty. Let me share a few verses of a hymn that came to mind, along with a tiny bit of my little plot in God’s Creation
“All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful, The Lord God made them all.”
“Each little flower that opens, Each little bird that sings, He made their glowing colors, He made their tiny wings.”
Iris ‘Honky Tonk Blues’
“He gave us eyes to see them, And lips that we might tell, How great is God Almighty, Who has made all things well.”
All Things Bright and Beautiful, hymn by Cecil F. Alexander
Paeonia ‘Bartzella’ (Itoh Peony)
If you’re not familiar with this wonderful hymn, you may want to give this beautiful rendition by Julie Gaulke a listen.
I love sharing about my barefoot gardening adventures, hence my blogger name. As I write, some of my other passions might spill out -- like fun with grandkids, baking and sewing endeavors, what I'm studying in Scripture, and the like. My readers will notice that one of the primary things I write about is Alzheimer's. May what I write be an encouragement to anyone who is a caregiver for someone they love with memory loss.
