Do you like it when God’s glorious nature surprises you? I guess your answer and mine depends on what the surprise is. I am speaking of the happy surprises, the good surprises.

While working outside yesterday in the yard I realized that our crabapple tree’s blooms were fading and starting to come off of their branches. This tree has always been a prolific bloomer but late last week the blooms were a deeper more intense pink. Looking to see if any of those deeper hued blooms might still remain I wen to look up under the tree where maybe the shade had protected a few. What I found was our clematis blooming, hidden by the fact that the colors were similar and that the tree is just so full of it’s own blossoms.

That is what I mean by happy surprises. Looking at one thing and bring blessed to find another that is equally as pleasant or inspiring. Later today I hope to spend more time admiring these newly found blossoms.
