Earlier this week, I received the following quote from Plough. The hyacinths, with their glorious scent, remind me that being planted in dirt is just the thing spring and all of us need.
"Nowadays, unfortunately, many things are done with the idea that the more spiritual and otherworldly we are, the better. But it is just the other way around. The more we learn to seek truth and to act on it as far as possible in the situation in which God has placed us, even if that be in the dirt, the better it is. For the Savior does not want to come as an idea but as a reality, wherever people live and struggle."
