I saw this TRUE Christmas cactus blooming today in a library. 🌵🌸💚 It isn't unusual because they can bloom into May. Is yours blooming? . . #cactusflower #itreallyisacactus #junglecactus #urbanjungle #libraryplants #stillblooming #gardenchat #houseplantsrock #houseplants #house_plant_community #indoorplants #Christmascactus #flowersofinstagram #flowers #ialwaysfindhouseplants #crazyplantlady (at Cromaine District Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu-SNyhFKaJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cljq5wb0riot

I had a need. 

This cool weather means Virginia bluebells are blooming longer then I’ve ever remembered seeing them before! #stillblooming #rva #bluebells #mertensiavirginica #blueflowers #flowerstagram (at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden)

GRACE BLOOMS For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:8-10 I am now six decades into this journey of life and faith. And still at times I doubt my God-given purpose and calling. I compare and question and stumble and sin, and I get back up and press on. For this I know – all is Grace. It is by Grace that I have been saved. My works, or lack of, have no bearing on Grace. It is purely Gift. And it keeps on blooming. And with the Gift of Grace comes a holy calling. We are all created full of Divine purpose and value. But it’s you — God’s workmanship — not the works, He treasures. His creation of YOU is irreplaceable. Your calling and path is uniquely designed for you. YOU are God’s masterpiece. And the Designer’s gifts displayed in you — become precious blooms in His Gallery. ________________________________ For grace is given not because we have done good works, but in order that we may be able to do them. – Saint Augustine of Hippo (354-430) #MayFlowers #blooming #grace #faith #LeipersFork #flowers #thedailystill #devotional #treasure #Creator #Designer #Workmanship #stillblooming

I may or may not have grabbed some of my grandma's peonies before driving back to CT last week... #stillblooming #freshfromthegarden #thanksgrandma
