This is beautiful! I can see why you like Mary Oliver's poetry so much!

I normally regret it when I pick up my phone before devos in the morning, but I'm glad I came across this before devos this morning, because this has helped prepare my mind and heart.

Thanks for sharing, Ryan!

Beautiful! I love how the poetic imagery of prayer even applies to the simplest weed glorifying God.

I loved reading this post, Ryan! My copy of Mary Oliver's Devotions is supposed to arrive tomorrow, and your post and quotes have me even more excited to dive into her work. 📚
