Found some evidence of Wild Teasel on a very cold day. You know what when something so spiky looks cozy that the weather is challenging. That day was full of hiking around and pushing through thickets of phragmites. I honestly couldn’t have been more pleased. There is something about pressing through the bramble and grabbing a hold of something a bit spiky that gives its own reward.
Wild Teasel is also called Fuller’s Teasel. It was used to clean freshly shorn wool. There is a cleansing aspect to it. The thickets and spiky stuff can pull the tangles from us. We need this. Don’t despair the uncleared path, find a way through and watch that which hinders fall away.
But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner ‘s fire and like fullers ‘ soap. Malachi 3:2
