Psalm 23:3a


This waterlily is white--and rightfully so. It has petaled its life in sweet water, has been touched only by rain and dew from the heavens and the stray minnow school's nibbling, and has for its center a dollop of fragrant brightness to spread--alighting on kayaks, hiding amongst curls, and coming home along with wet clothing and a transparent snail.

Let them give thanks to the LORD for His lovingkindness,
And for His wonders to the sons of men!
For He has satisfied the thirsty soul,
And the hungry soul He has filled with what is good (Psalm 107:8-9)

Beautiful artwork. The flower reminds me of you--showing Jesus to all who see it.
