God Created the Rose


God created the rose in the likeness of a woman
Yes He did!! 

The rose represents beauty, the stem represents strength. 

The pedals are soft as skin, the fragrance pure and sweet. 

The leaves represent arms outstretched, always loving, always giving. 

Each time you look at a  rose remember.....God made you special.


Until Next Time

  3. Your header is beautiful, Mary! That was the theme for Sunday's message at church...serving one another in love. God certainly gives us plenty of opportunities to do that, doesn't He?

    This is a beautiful poem that you've posted today. I'll think of it each time I see a rose.

  9. Oh I love this Miss Mary! I must say when I read Deb's remark it gave me a good little chuckle! I know I am a thorn but praise His Holy Name that He looks at me like a ROSE! Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  10. This was read to the Hostess at Home Interiors' shows when they were presented with an artificial rose. I think it was written by Mary C. Crowley, the founder of Home Interiors. My mom would always jokingly ask what the ladies thought the thorns represented, and then would say that we like to think the thorns represent the trials and tribulations in life. I loved being a Home Interiors baby! If you are interested in a LOVELY devotional-type book, please look for Mary Crowley's book "A Pocketful of Hope". It's filled with wonderful things. <3
