Bleeding Heart


God's design is intricate and interwoven,
beautiful and plain to see.

A friend has heard it said that nature is God's second book.
The pictured Bleeding Heart plant had been given to her a year ago...
and seeing it bloom nicely this year, moved,
she searched for a verse about the word heart.
Though other verses were found along with the one in the photo, 
she chose Psalm 33:20-21.

God is generous and gave her more than she sought.
And she shared with me...
"His word is living and active as it says in Hebrews 4:12-13."
In Him our hearts rejoice!

This is a simple thing to ponder,
but in simplicity God is seen most clearly...
"...the simplicity that is in Christ." -2 Corinthians 11:3

His heart bled.
And so must ours, in Him,
for beauty to bloom
plain to see.
