And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear…Let the land produce vegetation…” and it was so…And there was evening and there was morning—the third day (Genesis 1:9-13).

And next up on God Made That…plants!

I’ve kinda got a theme going here.  Hope you don’t mind.

Think of the most beautiful forest you’ve ever been in, with strong trees reaching to the heavens.  Think of the loveliest garden, with roses competing for your praise.  Think of the prettiest hillside, covered in lush grass and wildflowers.  Think of crisp apples and ripe berries and spicy peppers and Brussels sprouts—

No…don’t think of Brussels sprouts.  Never think of Brussels sprouts.

Again, Beloved, all by his hand.

And all for you.

Yes, you are worth it.

Happy Thursday, Beloved.
