Sacred Blooms: Peace Lilies

A Series from the Psalms

I welcome peace into my day as God meets me
in the stillness of each morning.
I begin with a calm, peaceful heart.
When I feel unsteady, I’ll ask God to be my anchor.

Fun Fact: Peace lilies are among the top ten plants for cleaning the air. They are easy to care for and make wonderful indoor companions.

Peace lilies.
Pure white leaves so delicate and true
poke through the winter cover to say hello.
Like an angel spreading its wings,
they stand tall, reaching toward the glow.
Slender and lovely,
Gracing our presence anew.

Like angels singing on high, there is peace.
Peace in new beginnings.
Peace in new perspectives.
Peace and love for all to know.
But first, inviting God into our hearts.

The Lord gives strength to His people; the Lord blesses His people with peace.

Psalm 29:11

Peace lilies mirror the hope in our souls.
To be welcomed.
To be steady.
To be soft.
To be full of grace.

Like a whispered prayer, they rise tall in the presence of God, as they lean toward the light as if to say, There is always hope for peace.

May peace settle gently in your soul.
May God quiet every anxious thought.
May you lean toward Him and feel His peace

bloom in you again and again.
