"Wildflowers Don't Care Where They Grow"

One of my favorite Dolly Parton songs is "Wildflowers don't care where they grow." As I travel the backroads of surrounding counties, I find that to be true here in North Carolina. They pop up on roadsides, in the middle of a pasture, along a fence row or anywhere imaginable. Mostly yellow, gold, purple, blue or white, they dot the countryside wherever thay can find a sunny spot to thrive. I think there is something special about wildflowers or flowering weeds, as the case my be. Randomly finding a spot of fertile soil with adequate sun and rain has no rhyme or reason and I think we are kind of like that. We are sprinkled out in the sea of life and we find our purpose and our roots where we land and we flourish with the skills that God has given us. Not always in a beautiful garden space that we had planned, but spread out across the countryside and prolific where we root the deepest. Wildflowers are beautiful, and remind us that we can be beautiful too, no matter where we land.
