Like the unfolding of a rose, our hearts are developing in the tender hands of God; unfolding slowly into womanhood. This process is delicate and of the utmost importance, requiring diligent protection and faithful guardianship from the world’s bitter frost and deadly diseases. To ensure a maiden’s heart survives and blooms in the fullness of life and beauty, she must be hidden in the Living God, her Savior Jesus Christ, entrusting her heart to the Maker of the rose and the Author of her very life.

Hey Kaysie,
Have you ever read a book called Beautiful Girlhood? (it’s really great) The author uses the illustration of our hearts being like a blooming flower. (or something to that effect… It sounded much better when she said it!!!)
You write very beautifully, thanks for the post! I’ll be looking forward for more.

Camille, now that you mentioned it, I think I do remember reading Beautiful Girlhood a few years back. I remember I liked it, but I’ll have to go back a reread it to find what she had to say about our lives being like roses. Thanks for the tip!
Also, thank you for your compliment… God is He who writes in me.
Looking forward to seeing you, Lord willing, on Tuesday at Precept. I have missed seeing you!

What beautiful thoughts Kaysie, but then again you have a knack for putting into words those things that are so difficult to express.
Oh, and I just found this blog of yours, I hadn’t realized you started another one! So I must say it looks very lovely.

Hey Kaysie!
I loved the way that you used the example of a blossoming rose to represent our own lives. What a sweet way to look at it! Love you!
