These are the blossoms of the pear tree and they always come out ahead of the leaves. The white flower against the blue sky really makes them stand out.

‘What you do may not seem important but it is very important that you do it.’ ~Author Unknown


We often take for granted what we are doing and the impact we are making. Take for example a single grain of salt. It may seem almost insignificant and worthless. Yet it is made up of billions of atoms. Each atom is like a stepping ladder. Each one is built using the one next to it. Take them away and the grain of salt just can’t be. It is the wonder of God’s creation all around us. What we do may seem hardly worth the effort but in terms of the overall picture it is hugely significant and important. If we actually realised the significance and the positive impact of many things we do each day, we’d fall to our knees in amazement and joy. But we only get glimpses of this every now and then. It’s enough to know that what you do makes the world of a difference.
