about late blooms

Back in March, I had a post about late blooms.  I wasn't really feeling God's presence in my Lent, and was rather disappointed.  I mentioned it to my pastor, and he said not to be too quick to write off Lent as a failure - that it might be a "late bloom".  At that time, it was almost Easter, and my Easter lilies weren't blooming, either, so I thought it was a cool image (and good advice, it turned out.)

My Easter Lilies are now blooming.  I have tried in vain to get a picture that really captures them.  This one will have to do; my lens was fogged up because it was cooler inside than outside. 

Very much feeling the Presence right now!
