Lynn Austin Money Quote saying God loves abundance and provides beauty and then food in addition. Lynn Austin said:
 

 

“God didn’t have to give us cherry blossoms you know. He didn’t have to make apple trees and peach trees burst into flower and fragrance. But God just loves to splurge. He gives us all this magnificence and then, if that isn’t enough, He provides fruit from such extravagance” — Lynn Austin

 

 

This quote from Lynn Austin reflects on God’s generosity in creation. She notes that while God didn’t have to create beautiful flowering trees like cherry blossoms and fruit trees, He chose to make them not just beautiful but extravagantly so.

The trees burst into full bloom and a rich fragrance. And as if that wasn’t enough, God provides fruit from these trees as well. So Austin sees God as one who “splurges” or lavishly pours out natural beauty and resources for our enjoyment without any real need on His part to do so.

The quote expresses appreciation for the magnificence of God’s creation and His abundant provision for our benefit.
