The very day I was in need of a centre piece for one of our showings, one came through the door ( I have flowers now 24/7!) I actually want fresh flowers all the time, but reality says that may not happen. But now I have every reason to keep our home sparkling and fresh with something blooming and lovely!! I have to say it makes a difference. I always buy the long lasting flowers that make it through for at least a week or more. White, off white and lots of greenery.
This calla lilly came on a day (as I started to write...) from my dear neighbour Eleanor. Earlier in the day I had purchased a glass vase for our dining room table and wondered what I would add to it. I did not have to think long. I placed this in it, the perfect fit and look for that day! I can keep it beyond the table. When we move I can transplant it into our new garden and every year I can enjoy the precious flower and remember this gift from my friend. She did not know what I needed but was prompted and blessed me!
That is how it works. God prompts and you can be a part of blessing someone, daily! I have learned over the years the tug that gently moves my heart, or the thoughts that come to mind that are clearly God given and need action.
I am humbled by her act of kindness and inspired how wonderfully simple an action can be. If you are prompted, act on it and watch what happens!!

You've said so many wonderful things about Eleanor to me. I know you'll really miss her when you move.
