What a beautiful bouquet! It just goes to show you what creative gifting can produce. All of these flowers in and of themselves have a beauty all their own, but when decoratively placed by an artist with an eye to see the finished work, they shine all the more. Together they orchestrate a beauty beyond their original intent.

Can you see how the body of Christ is meant to do the same? By ourselves we have a fragrance that those who are hurting and empty will recognize as unique and compelling. When fitted together in the right spots we make a masterpiece that is impossible to ignore. Sit at Jesus' feet today, and allow His great grace and love for you fall like a warm silk blanket, covering every hurt and fear, soothing even the roughest of spots.
 "The Lord is my portion" says my soul, Therefore I hope in Him. The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks Him. It is good that one should hope and wait quietly For the salvation of the Lord." { Lamentations 3:24-26}
