Peonies and Morning Glory

It seems like every day when I read from Farrar's Life of Christ, I read something that pertains to this group. Here is today's offering:

"It is not the influence of external forces, but it is the germinal principle of life within, which makes the good seed to grow; nor can the hard heart be converted by portents and prodigies (think threats and fears or even visions of grandeur), but by the inward humility, and the grace of God stealing downward like the dew of heaven, in silence and unseen."
