Gardening and such
Greetings fellow bloggers!
Do any of you garden? I do! We recently had our backyard landscaped and there is a lot of garden area. I spend a very good amount of my free time out there and sincerely enjoy it. I feel-while I care for my plants-that I am really caring for God's plants. The plants he blessed me with.
Isaiah 61:11
"For as the earth brings forth its sprouts, and as a garden causes the things sown in it to spring up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations."
Isaiah 51:3
"Indeed, the LORD will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places and her wilderness He will make like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and sound of a melody."
I am truly blessed by the Lord! Already, flowers are turning to the beginnings of vegetables and fruits. Oh King of Kings! Lord of Lords! I shall praise Him all my days. He has given me a wonderful family, a roof over my head, clothes to cover my body, and food to fill my stomach. Is that not enough? Yet He has given me so much more! I do not dare say I deserve it. It fills me with such happiness to know that we have a God that is so loving he sent his son to take away our sins! How could we ever say we deserve to even live? Yet he loves us, and created us not because he was lonely, or because he needed some friends, but because he wanted to. And he wants us to love him too.
Are we loving him as he wants us to? Are we following his commands? Are we giving him our all?
I am striving to, though I cannot say that I am very successful.
God Bless You All!
He Loves You,
