Day 44 A Rose in Another's Hands

Day 44

Tonight I hosted our prayer meeting.
I was so excited for everyone to see my newly decorated apt!
I proudly displayed my beautiful roses on the coffee table,
an elegant glass vase their shelter.
They were so enchanting,
captivating really.
So white, so pure.
I thought,
"This is what I want to be, Lord."

When my close friend, Nikki, was leaving,
we couldn't help but gab about my roses.
In my excitement, I offered her one.
It was a great feeling,
watching her look them over and pick "the one."
Her glowing smile lit me up inside.
True beauty should be shared!

Lesson: don't just appreciate beauty alone.
