Thanks, Mike. This reflection was a joy to read and re-read.

I often turn to King David's Psalm 37 for encouragement. The words therein are indeed a "fire poppy" from the Triune God.

Thanks so much for the kind words! I’m really glad the reflection spoke to you.

Psalm 37 is such a steadying passage. I love that image of it being a “fire poppy," something that emerges with beauty and resilience when the ground has been scorched. That’s a powerful way to hold God’s promises in hard seasons.

Appreciate you reading so thoughtfully.
