Christians are like the flowers in a garden, that have each of them the dew of Heaven, which, being shaken with the wind, they let fall at each other's roots, whereby they are jointly nourished, and become nourishers of each other.
-- John Bunyan
This is the Heartlight quote to the left here on my blog today and I thought it to be particularly poignant in regard to the relationships around us on a daily basis. I am fully convinced that we, as a whole, don't realize the power we have to 'nourish' another person in the simple course of daily life. I need these reminders every now and again!

Boy, I surely do miss Tracey and Tonja. How 'bout you?
What a beautiful quote. Love it. Thanks for being a friend who "nourishs" my life.
Amen, sista! Thanks for posting that, and for being a nourisher! Sadly, I think sometimes it takes someone hurting us to help us realize just how much we affect others!
I love that quote. Thanks for sharing.
