Raleigh got me 2 rose bushes on the 1st year anniversary date of my car accident. He and the children gave them to me and told me how happy they were that I was still here and that these roses would remind me of that daily.
I just hoped, back 3 years ago, that I would not kill the rose bush...that would not be good.
To my sweet surprise, one of the rose bushes has taken off! And it is to God alone and his blessings of rain!! In all seriousness, I looked outside the other day and just had to take a picture of it. The roses that were all in bloom just reminded me of God's abundant blessings. He saved me from that accident and I have enjoyed life's blessings in a whole new light. I am so thankful to have this rose bush as a constant reminder of God's love and the love of my family.
