Granny's Garden

My Granny's garden is one of the most beautiful ones I have encountered.

She has beautiful lupine flowers:

The pods of the lupine flowers, like furry gloved fingers:

Not sure what these are, but they're also gorgeous (and very photogenic!)

Whose garden do you admire?

This little light

A couple of weeks ago, our power went out for about two days. We lit candles, and naturally, I took pictures.

There's something so warm and inviting about a candle. So homey and cozy and yet somehow picturesque.

Candles always remind me of the verses in Matthew 5:

You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, so they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. {Matthew 5:14-16}

Oh that I would always be a bright light, shining for Him!
