I had several African violets that all died in a moving van on a very cold night, but that is a story for another time. 🙂 I love how you’ve applied this to staying in God’s light and enlisting His help when something is in the way, especially if something we are less-than-equipped to move ourselves.

And I am the kiss of death to all house plants… Which is crazy because my garden flourishes!

I had never been successful with them but these must have been in the right spot. When I returned them a long time later, they not only had both grown but the flowers were incredible. You have pulled beautiful thoughts on light from these plants >> “I want more blooms, too. I want to stay positioned to soak in the light.” So grateful He does the work as we stay in His Light.

So often we are basking in the wrong light and getting anemic and sick because we are caught up in finding light, not realizing it is the wrong kind of light.
