Many consider August to be the "crowning of the year". It is the very fullness of summer - August indeed contains its essence.
But. We've gone the entire month of August, here in East Tennessee, without so much as a trace of rain. Today, finally, the rains have come. We are expecting some good, soaking rains through Wednesday. I went out to my flower gardens last night to create a bouquet while I could linger and choose flowers and not get soaked to the skin - in anticipation of the forecast today.
So...there are glorious clouds outside, and I have a bit of sunshine inside!

*contented sigh* I so love your flower garden. It makes me crave my own.. and the time/energies to tend to it.
Someday, you shall have your own...AND the time to plant it and tend it. I won't lie to you - it does take time.
So many things that are deemed as "frivolous" or "extra" are in fact soul necessities, and take quite an investment of time. Things like reading and writing and growing a garden and teaching your own children to read - you can't place a monetary value on any of it, but they are, in fact, priceless activities that contribute immensely to the quality of life.
BEAUTIFUL! Some of the Lord's GLORY is growing in your backyard and now, glowing in a vase in your home! PRAISES that we also have some much-needed rain here in nc today-- so blessed by the scripture you share!
