Hello, God. It's me, Mara.

You know, Lord, this was an interesting find; reading about someone who dreamed they were receiving a bouquet of flowers from God. A little girl, long ago, shared that she had received a beautiful bouquet of tiny little flowers in her dream. The only thing that she could think of was that she had helped a man who was having hard time with some bad people. She told them it was not nice to treat the poor man that way and that they should stop doing it - right way. The man thanked the little girl.

The little girl was a sincere, dear little person trying to protect and care for the man, in her dream, and because of that, she received this beautiful gift in her dream, from You, Lord. Every now and then, we too, are surprised by the ways we received "bouquets from God" when we do what You desire.

We know, Lord, that You love to bless all Your special children; we pray that we all would have caring minds and hearts. All we need to do is look around us, we don't have to look far to see that there really are folks in need of Your help. Maybe we can do something to help them, be they family, friends, loved ones, neighbors, or someone like the little girl had helped. We could be a taxi, bake something to share with someone, flowers are starting to show up, we could share a tiny bouquet. Give us an idea to share with someone in need.

We read in Matthew 25:40: "And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.'"

It's spring! Loving Lord God, give us strength to follow Your footsteps.

Love, Mara
