When we returned from Coimbatore yesterday, our garden had a new look with the Lilies in full bloom.
It is perhaps a reminder of an early summer! The day time temperature is above 30 degree celsius, although the night temperature dips to 15.
What is refreshing about the flowers is their resilience! They survive the heat and humidity and stay fresh because of its provisions from the soil which transcend the pressures of a challenging weather.
The interior moods change according to how we feel about our environment and relationships, which often affect our wellness.
The flowers tell another story. They are rooted in the soil and help them to draw their nourishment to overcome the dry and humid weather.
How well rooted are we in God, who is the source and substance of our lives is the revealing question to ponder upon!
Yesterday, while driving back from Coimbatore, we stopped at a restaurant for our evening tea. At the entrance of the restaurant, noticed an aquarium full of fish, moving about freely! The freedom of living because they are in water!
It was a reminder that it is in 'God, we live, move and have our being"!
