Glory Glory!

Wow. I have planted morning glory's in my back yard for several years. I was inspired by a dear friend, Sherri Luttrell. She has a very green thumb. I am trying too! The first year I put the seeds in the ground and they went crazy. The next year...not so much. This summer was my third attempt. The seeds popped up and began to crawl on the trellis. But, there were very few flowers. It was TOO hot and dry this summer, they just couldn't take the heat! :) But now that we are blessed with cooler days, just look what happened. When I see that out my kitchen window each morning...it sure makes getting up easier! Thank you God for the amazing colors, textures, shapes and the surprises of fall! I highly recommend these flowers! The seeds will set you back a couple of dollars at most but the dividend is quite amazing! Isn't God just the most amazing artist ever!!!

Gorgeous! Yours are prettier than mine. Most of mine have been plucked off for morning glory soup and other delicacies. God planted some in my alley by the trash dumpster and they sure do cheer up the place. I loved seeing yours!

May I say first of all, that I too, adore Sherri! She is such a beautiful expression of Jesus in so many lives. Your trellis looks amazing, Mary Kay! What a wonderful reminder of God's majesty. I just love nature and the many ways it points out God's mystery. Bless you sweet friend!
