Sunday afternoon, I took these pictures of the front yard at church. Aren’t these tiny little flowers so cute?! But they are only weeds. No one planted them. Brother Tom mowed the church yard last week and he will mow it again next week, so these little flowers/weeds will only survive for a few days. But they did a great job brightening my day while they lasted. Their brief blooming window is long enough for them to thrive. And they provide a great lesson for us: Bloom where you’re planted. Bloom while you can. Don’t worry about tomorrow; just do what you can today. David understood the brevity of life when he said in Psalm 103:15&16, “As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.” Hey, serve the dear Lord while you can because you will soon be in eternity.
