This past weekend, my husband and I had the opportunity to visit Woodstock, Vermont, in the heart of New England’s picturesque Green Mountains. I had dreamt of visiting Vermont, and last winter we made our first visit. We loved it so much that we returned again. Vermont’s wintry scenes actually warm and comfort my soul!
The white blanket of snow that covers the ground is pure and lovely. Underneath, the spring grass awaits to emerge, and will be a luscious covering of green felt, like the snow is in the winter; each giving the soil an inviting layer that offers beauty, purity and freshness in season.
Just as blankets of snow in God’s New England mountains cover the ground with bright wintry beauty, Christ cloths his family of believers with Robes of Righteousness. We learn from God’s word that Jesus takes and discards our our “filthy garments of unrighteousness” and spiritually cloths us in “fine linen”, clean and bright!
As I look at this wondrous blanket of clean and bright snow, I imagine our mighty God lovingly wrapping us with a perfect, pure and finely woven robe. Jesus, our precious savior, divinely walking with us, proud of His spotlessly attired bride! I am so very thankful to have spent the last few days in His beauty. As the Apostle Paul describes in the first chapter of Romans, His creation shouts of His majesty!
Peony Market was birthed from the scripture of Isaiah 61. It was through this chapter that I felt lead to curate and offer items that bring beauty to your home and those you cherish. Items such as fine soaps, perfumes, wraps, coverups, and lovely lingerie, The prophet Isaiah describes God’s restoration for His chosen ones. Peony Market desires to offer products that make us feel renewed, restored and fresh like that of new snow.
This month we are featuring a soft and cozy shawl, a wonderful item for upcoming spring days. You can pair this graceful white wrap with your favorite jeans and tank or long sleeve shirt. Picture yourself wrapped in His love!
Along with these wraps, we are also featuring several styles of blankets designed by Sackcloth and Ashes; a company that gives a blanket to the homeless for every blanket purchased. The blankets make a comforting throw for your home, or a gorgeous blanket for an outside concert or the beach. Choose the blanket that best fits your style. They make a great gift, too!
I hope you know that God loves you. He wants a relationship with you. Wrap up in His unconditional loved!
“I will rejoice greatly in the Lord, my soul will exult in my God; for he clothed me with garments of salvation and wrapped me in a robe of righteousness.” Isaiah 61:10
There is nothing quite so beautiful than seeing a peaceful red barn with a blanket of snow tucking it in.
