Consider the Lilies

Consider how the lilies grow, they do not toil, nor do they sew yet still the beauty of their bloom dwarfs that of cloth from any loom. The perfection their petals show belies the muck in which they grow. They shine like stars in the darkest night, in scenes that would sicken our sight. The One who makes the lilies grow is someone we should get to know, for only He can make us glow as we wend our way through life’s flow. Be not anxious, and do not fret over the things that are not yet. The God who makes the lilies bloom can meet your needs from His storeroom. On lilies petals, God has penned a message of His will to lend, His aid to those who in Him trust as creatures whom He made from dust. The beauty of created things shows the glory that God’s throne rings. The God who made them for our joy gives pleasures pure without alloy. The laws that guide the stars in flight rule petals opening to light. The brightness of the lilies’ white Shows God’s character is all right. The circumstances of your birth, do not determine your self-worth. God put His image within you so, His beauty can shine through.
