A Message from Morning Glory Flowers

BY

A Morning Glory was the most delicate flower,
The petals as a soft silky fabric.
Heavenly pastel, luminous star centre.
Despite the drizzle, soggy, and gloomy day.
How amazing and cheerful it was!
To a gardener who planted the first time.
Graciously burgeon like a fairy-tale land.
Delightful display in the morning sunrise.
Awe! And it conveys a heartfelt message.
That our creative talents are for the glory,
honour, and praise of God.
He delights in us and He delights in our abilities to create.
Be creative and let our creativity thrive.
Our voices, our services, and our abilities
are to be employed, primarily, for the glory of God.
Let thy will be done! Let thy will be done!
