Sunday Greetings from Adri's Garden 🌻 Many people, myself included, are surprised when discovering that not all succulent plants can be in full sun in their gardens. I think it depends on climate, but in my subtropical garden, this Bulbine Latifolia needs semi-shade, as I found out when its leaves got scorched in the hot summer sun. In our own lives we may find that we thrive in the right conditions and circumstances. In difficult circumstances we may bravely try our best, but it takes a lot out of us to just stay 'alive.' Let's take our circumstances to God, and pray for strength to cope, and the possibility to be moved into more favourable conditions πŸ™πŸΌ Have a Blessed Sunday and a week ahead πŸ™πŸΌβœοΈπŸŒ»

Sunday Greetings from Adri's Home ✝️ My sister-in-law gifted me this daylily plant for Christmas, transporting it all the way from Cape Town. It had many buds, only for the stem to be broken by our inquisitive dog. I cut the stem with the buds and put it in water, with the hope that they would bloom. Unfortunately, the other buds were all too small and stressed, so they died off, this was the only one that bloomed. We often try to grow emotionally and spiritually, and something/ someone cut us to the core. We may bravely try to bloom but some parts of us are too immature and dies off, perhaps necessarily so. Yet, nurtured in the Living Water of God's Word and Eucharist, we can still mature and bloom, giving hope and joy to ourselves and others. Wishing you a Blessed Sunday πŸ™πŸΌβœοΈ 🌻

Sunday Greetings from Adri's Garden 🌻This double, even triple, hibiscus bloom is so beautiful. What also struck me when I took this photo today, is the wispy clouds in the blue sky. The whole scene strongly reminds me of Luke 3:21 - 22 ... and as he was praying, the heavens opened. And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, β€œYou are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased." As we celebrate the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist today, let us pray that we live our lives with faith and love, so that one day when we come face to face with God, we may also hear that we are His beloved son or daughter, in whom He is well-pleased. Wishing you a Blessed Sunday ✝️ 🌻

Sunday Greetings from Adri 🌹I took this photo of a flag bush (Mussaenda erythrophylla) in someone else's garden. The shrub is about 3m X 3m high and wide, and covered in these beautiful red bracts with the star-like centre bloom. Today we celebrate the Feast of the Epiphany - God's revelation of baby Jesus to the Wise Men. Even though they were studious and wise, they knew something was missing. So they followed the star and found the newborn true God and King, worshipped Him and gave Him their gifts. May we continue to follow the Star of God to our King, Jesus, and give Him our gifts, especially the gifts of worshipping the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, with all our mind and with all our strength. Wishing you a Blessed Epiphany Sunday πŸ™πŸ½βœοΈβœ¨οΈ

Sunday Greetings from Adri's Garden 🌹 This beautiful rose is called Double Delight because of its beauty and strong perfumed fragrance 😍 Today, this particular cluster of three blooms reminds me of the Holy Family - Jesus, Mary and Joseph - they are separate, yet connected by the love of God that brought them together. Our families are also separate and unique people. May we always remember that when we rub each other up the wrong way, that we are brought and kept together by the love of God, which is stronger that anything in this world. Wishing you a blessed Feast of the Holy Family 🌹🌹🌹

Sunday Greetings from Adri's Garden 🌺 The bloom of this hibiscus is still unfurling, and nature is patiently waiting for it to do so. This week is also for us a time of waiting, patiently unfurling our hearts and spirits to receive the blessings of joy, hope, peace and love on Christmas Day when we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus πŸ‘ΌπŸΌπŸ˜‡ As we journey this week, may we spread joy, hope, love and peace to our families, friends and communities. Have a Blessed Sunday as, with the Candles of Hope, Peace and Joy, we light the 4th Candle of Advent - the Candle of Love ✝️🌷

Sunday Greetings from Adri's Garden 🌻 This beautiful bougainvillea branch was splayed far out, like the other branches, but unfortunately, being so heavy, it snapped. Despite literally hanging on by a thread, it continues to spread joy with its beautiful pink blooms. I had to hold it up to take this photo, perhaps it may root if I propagate it... Today we celebrate Gaudete Sunday, where we light the Candle of Joy in anticipation of the Joy we will have when celebrating the birth of our Saviour. May we rejoice in the knowledge that God loves us, even when it feels at time as if we are hanging on by a thread. We can trust that God will hold us up. Wishing you a Blessed Gaudete Sunday πŸ•―οΈβœοΈπŸŒ·
