The Easter Lily

        

                                  ~~The Easter Lily~~

           

           For many the beautiful trumpet-shaped flowers symbolize:

                

                   ~PURITY~VIRTUE~INNOCENCE~PEACE~HOPE & LIFE~

                          

                                  The Essence of Easter

History, literature, poetry and the world of art overflow with stories

 and images that speak of the beauty and majesty of the elegant white

 flowers. Often called the “White-Robed Apostles of Hope,” lilies were

found growing in the Garden of Gethsemane after Christ’s agony. 

      Tradition has it that the beautiful white lilies sprung up where

 drops of Christ’s sweat fell to the ground in his final hours of sorrow

 and deep distress. Churches continue this tradition at Easter time by

 banking their altars & surrounding their crosses with masses of 

Easter Lilies, to commemorate the resurrection of Jesus Christ &

                                   hope of life everlasting.

        Be  Blessed with Peace, Hope & Love this Resurrection Week

The Winding Road of Life...

          There have been portions of the road, that have been laden with burdens and  seemingly insurmountable obstacles...

                                         Other times the path has been straight and sure...

                       There have been some portions that have been dark, with no end in sight....

And sometimes I was definitely between a rock and a hard place, the walls seems to be pressing in...

But there have also been those places where the truth unfolded like the petals of a blooming rose...

And certainly the path has turned to find the sunrise, and all the hope and promise of a new day....

Today has been a day that is a culmination of all the other days, the winding Road seen as the whole that opens into a clearing and explains the whole of the former path, and sheds light on the latter yet to come.....

A day which everything up until this moment becomes CRYSTAL~CLEAR, and good or bad it makes sense, and understanding why is obvious, and the future is full of expectation, without fear, because God is my portion and he has lead me all the way and will until faith is made sight, and I see him face to face.
