I am only a little rose or autumn crocus of the plain of Sharon,
I am a humble lily of the valleys that grows in deep and difficult places
Song of Solomon 2:1 | AMP
Flower blooms in all their diversification are pictures of beauty, honor
and delicious fragrances.
The “Rose of Sharon,” was proverbial for it’s proverbial excellence.
While “the Lily of the valleys,” bloomed in the desert valleys of hardship
into glorious perfections.
Jesus reached down and picked a desert lily and taught from it:
“Consider the lilies how they grow:
they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you,
that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.”
Luke 12:27
Jesus reached down and picked the rose of Sharon and lily of the valley
for me in Jill. She is arrayed perfectly as an ideal help meet in my life.
Happy birthday Jill
