Have you ever received a gift that keeps on giving—or growing? Books, photos, spices, journals, devotionals are all items the receiver can use and enjoy over and over.
Another one—Bulbs!
Recently, a huge field of thousands of daffodils was dug up with all the bulbs given to the Jonquil committee. Since our field is also a daffodil field, we profited from the gift with a generous supply of bulbs—overwhelming!
What is the definition of generous? I have no idea—a truck bed full or a storage floor full—several thousand? I promise I will not be counting them.
This gift will keep on giving as it multiplies over the years, bringing joy and beauty each spring.
For now, we have the tremendous task of planting them.
“Planted in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the courtyards of our God.” Psalm 92:13
What gifts can you think of that go on and on?
How exciting!!!! And overwhelming! Tale it a little at a time. Will you bring me some when you come visit?
I will gladly bring you some!!!!
