He has the responsibility of protecting all the plants, trees, bushes, and flowers that live under his domain. Today we were blessed with a gentle rainfall and the pine tree stretched its arms out to catch every rain drop that fell on his domain. The crape myrtles surround and hug the pine tree while the magnolia, a slow grower, stands in their shadows knowing that someday he will be strong, tall and majestic. The azaleas sip from the rain that trickles down to them from the outstretched pine to the billowing crape myrtle to the incognito magnolia and under and around the azaleas, the candytuft and the vinca vine cover the ground like a plush carpet absorbing the recycled rain water. Finally to the dirt, that lovely dirt, that mother that gives birth to young sprouts that grow to be mighty pines. The dirt that makes everything come alive absorbs, stores and feeds the roots of all these beautiful green living testimonies to God’s blessings for all of us to enjoy.
