Orange Bells
Though a little ragged, the ‘Million Bells’ petunias are still blooming, despite night temperatures as low as the 20’s! Maybe I will grow them again next year, after all. If I do, I’ll plant them at a lower level where I can see and enjoy them better. They come in a variety of colors; the garden center had entire hanging baskets overflowing with them in with several colors together.
The air feels fresher today after an early morning rain—we do too.
In these days leading up to Christmas, I’m asking Jesus to teach me deep down about his love. To God, love is a very big deal; Paul even said that without love he [and we] are nothing and gain nothing (1 Corinthians 13). If we don’t love our brother, we don’t love God or even know him (1 John 4:8). If we don’t obey Jesus’ teachings (such as “love your enemy”), we don’t love God (1John 2:3-6). It makes sense since God is love (1 John 4:16).
