| last late sunflower bloom |
Do you just hang on to every bit of summer that you can, even when it's full-blown fall time? We do! A few weeks ago, we walked through the sunny side of our studio garden and captured the last remnants of sunshine days. We thought we'd share a few with you today! Perhaps these final flourishes of the season will brighten up your day like they do ours. Its amazing how a thing of beauty, held in your heart, can make even a rainy, cold day seem like a day at the beach.

It reminds us of the thing of beauty we hold inside of us, the treasure we carry around inside of us while on this earth. The Voice translation describes it quite beautifully like this:
"But this beautiful treasure is contained in us—cracked pots made of earth and clay—so that the transcendent character of this power will be clearly seen as coming from God and not from us."
2 Corinthians 4:7

We hope our little snippets from the garden remind you to look for the the beautiful bouquet of treasure contained inside each of you.
Holding the beauty of summer and the treasure of God in our hearts,
