Blossoming in shade...

Shade is often seen as a hinderance to growth and flourishing. Yet many things do flourish in shade. Shade can be sheltering. Shade can be a respite. Shade can sometimes provide a chiaroscuro effect to showcase a sunlit blossom. So too, can God bring beauty and flourishing in our darker times. Peace be with you, Leigh.
