We’re smack in the middle of summer but I will pause and count my blessings this season. Our arid Arizona days have turned into monsoon rains and we are refreshed. Triple digits are put on hold for a while and cooler desert mornings allow me longer hours of yard work, especially after the messy, wild storms. We’ve always grown hollyhocks, but for some reason, they went dormant the last two years. I remember Tom on his sickbed reminding me to water the seeds he planted near the fence and, like a crazy lady, I watered what seemed like empty dirt all last year. Was he confused, maybe? Come spring I saw the fluffy, green leaves sprout all along the fence line. I got excited when the different colored flowers opened. You never know what you're going to get! As I watered, I thought of the Scripture verse about “calling forth that which is not as though it was.” Hmm, I should apply that one to several areas of my life! I spent last week with family in Tucson.
