My Impressions:

Wherein The Lilies Grow is a devotional book that grew from a wilderness time in the author’s life.  Jo Crosby spent this time reflecting, journaling, writing poetry and gardening.  Filled with beautiful photographs of day lilies, thoughtful and heartfelt poetry and scripture  that will guide you towards God and His love and provision, this small volume is perfect for women.  Each section of the book is introduced by a journal entry from the author reflecting her time spent seeking the Lord.  If you are looking for a devotional for yourself or as a gift, check out Jo Crosby’s Wherein The Lilies Grow.
