I have always loved flowers!! As a young girls I remember walking down the alley ways of Burley Idaho smelling Lilacs. Even today, when I walk by a lilac tree, it brings memories to my mind. Recently while I was in Arizona, I enjoyed the beautiful smell of a flowering tree that lined the sidewalks. Flowers help me to feel close to God. Join me today as I interview Michelle who is a floral designer. Michelle shares how she grew to be passionate about flowers and how flowers are God's gift to each of us.
Doctrine and Covenants 59:
16 Verily I say, that inasmuch as ye do this, the fulness of the earth is yours, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and that which climbeth upon the trees and walketh upon the earth;
17 Yea, and the herb, and the good things which come of the earth, whether for food or for raiment, or for houses, or for barns, or for orchards, or for gardens, or for vineyards;
18 Yea, all things which come of the earth, in the season thereof, are made for the benefit and the use of man, both to please the eye and to gladden the heart;
19 Yea, for food and for raiment, for taste and for smell, to strengthen the body and to enliven the soul.
20 And it pleaseth God that he hath given all these things unto man; for unto this end were they made to be used, with judgment, not to excess, neither by extortion.bethnewellcoaching.com
