Hello everyone,
I’m so surprised and thankful! A while back I was so worried about my secular relatives visiting me and my ‘holy house’ filled with a good portion of sacred art and some other nice things. Well I got a treat from the Blessed Mother I believe that just makes everything great! and is better than all the sacred art in the house put together.
You see I planted some petunias and marigolds out front of my house like in april. They were already started for me so they were a few inches high. I have a large (about hip high) statue of Our Lady of Lourdes also out front among the flowers. I decided to plant from seed some other flowers in about April. I didn’t know at the time if the seed flowers sprouted or not because several weeds crept into my garden, so every now and then I weed out the garden of everything that wasn’t flowering leaving only the petunias and marigolds and Rodedendrens and Mary of course. Well I did the weeding out again yesterday and low and behold one flower from seed survived 2 weedings! Now I put these seeds all over, in front of Mary, 6ft from Mary, everywhere along the front flowerbed of the house and I weeded everywhere too. Well yesterday when I weeded I found one lone flower, a pinkish orange Zinnia, I think, with a yellow center. It had grown at least a few inches left of center of where Mary was. It had grown along the ground to perhaps a fraction of an inch off from the percise midpoint of where the Mary statue is and then it made a left turn moving toward the statue slightly and then it grew straight up! Wow! Now that’s SACRED ART but of divine nature I’d like to think. I wanted to take a picture and send it to the Vatican but I thought they were busy so I thought you all would be the next best thing.
And the party with all my relatives coming over is next week so hopefully the Zinnia will still be alive.
