Today is Pentecost Sunday. I’m often reminded of this musing from several years ago. I hope you enjoy it — is a bit of a meandering story. But one that I know brings the Comforter close to my heart. It was an annual event. Five days of nonstop GO. I will likely never forget the…

Dormancy. I recently purchased some plants from an online nursery. When they arrived the insert was clear. These plants are NOT dead, they are dormant.
