Comes, sound, bares, shakes

“Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,
At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,
When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death
And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.”

—	C.S. Lewis The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

Too deep

In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the heart knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

Romans 8:26, 27

Campanula

Meggie surprised me on my arrival day from Ca with a little pot of Campanula!  They're cute, little, and purple, so how could they go wrong.  Admittedly, I cried when she gave them to me.  I really need this little bit of life and love right now.

Latin for "little bell"
In England it's called, "Harebell."
In Scotland it's called, "Bluebell."
It's associated with the species Rampion Bellflower, which the Grimm Brothers refer to in Rapunzel.

I will sing of the lovingkindness of the Lord forever; To all generations I will make known Your faithfulness with my mouth.
For I have said, "Lovingkindness will be built up forever; In the heavens You will establish Your faithfulness."
