I saw this zinnia growing in a park a couple of weeks ago. It was actually surrounded by a lot of other differently colored zinnias all making a very nice display. This one looks like it has a circle of flowers within the flower.
Sometimes we don’t stop to see the flowers because we are so busy with our lives and daily concerns that we just kind of hurry on about our days.
I like Psalm 46:
Attention, all! See the marvels of God!
He plants flowers and trees all over the earth,
Bans war from pole to pole,
breaks all the weapons across his knee.
“Step out of the traffic! Take a long,
loving look at me, your High God,
above politics, above everything.”
Jacob-wrestling God fights for us,
God-of-Angel-Armies protects us.
Psalm 46:8-11 (The Message)
