Have you ever heard of a resurrection plant? It's a tumble weed that can blow around for 100 years and once it gets watered it comes back to life.

There night be more than one type of resurrection plants. The one I refer to is a tumble weed plantFor good or for bad ?
"Selaginella lepidophylla
species of plant
The resurrection plant, also known as Rose of Jericho, is a unique plant species known for its ability to survive extreme dehydration and then revive when water is available. Native to the Chihuahuan Desert in North America and parts of Central and South America, it is scientifically named Selaginella lepidophylla.24
This plant can survive for years without water, curling its fronds into a tight ball during dry periods and unfurling them when exposed to moisture.24 It thrives in well-drained soil and prefers partial sun exposure.2 As a houseplant, it requires minimal care, needing only occasional watering and bright, indirect light.24 When grown indoors, it can be placed in a bowl with pebbles and watered with non-chlorinated water to keep it hydrated.2
The resurrection plant is not only a fascinating botanical specimen but also holds cultural and symbolic significance. It is often used in voodoo rites to invoke good fortune and love, and it is believed to absorb negative energy when carried on the body."
It's God's wonderful creation. It's not witchcraft. The reason I started it is because I thought this forum was like a ghost town and it reminded me of the resurrection plant.Ditto. It is more often associated with witchcraft than with godliness, apparently.
So why a topic of it ?
What's the origin of the topic, or even why consider it ?
It's peaceful at leastWell , online it is often associated with witchcraft, even on ammzon sales....
....
It may be a 'good' addition to a ghost town..... (and won't change it )
The ghost townWhat is peaceful ?
Actually Jesus went into the wilderness for solitude and the devil disturbed his peace.Yes , just the way the devil likes things to be - no life.
Don't twist nor mis-use any idea of Scripture for any purpose of anyone , ever, at all, ever, please.Actually Jesus went into the wilderness for solitude and the devil disturbed his peace.
footnote to consider later: Jesus , and others before and since,Actually Jesus went into the wilderness for solitude and the devil disturbed his peace.
I don't.Don't twist nor mis-use any idea of Scripture for any purpose of anyone , ever, at all, ever, please.
