The season of Epiphany is all about the journey - it is a time when we get to Walk with Jesus and learn from him how it is to be a disciple.
It is a season of encouragement, wonder and risk taking with one goal: building up the kingdom of God!
The lectionary readings from this Sunday are: Deuteronomy 30:15-20, Psalm 119:1-8, 1 Corinthians 3:1-9, Matthew 5:21-37

The fig tree ripens its figs,
and the vines are in blossom;
they give forth fragrance.
Arise, my love, my beautiful one,
and come away. --Song of Solomon 2:13

My Facebook friends know me as the woman who posts flower pictures. I love flowers. All I have to do is look at a Dahlia to know that there's a God who loves us. On our Holy Land trip I was drawn to the flowers as usual. On the last night of the trip my bus captain joked that he had to keep a sharp eye on me as I was always wandering off to take pictures of flowers.
I thought you might like to see a few of my photos and realize that flowers grow everywhere, just as God's love is universal.
