Fruit of your labour

Posted in Encouragement
We just recently returned from a homeschooling convention in Florida and were pleasantly surprised to find that our little garden had grown lots in our absence.  I don't know what it is, but there is something special in God's divine 'watering system' (aka rain )  Well, this is what we found when we returned:


surprise gardner

of all the crops to yield first, it had to be okra, my least favourite

gardening lesson 101

Our first sunflower - woohoo!!

This just serves as a reminder to me that if we do not lose heart or faint, like scripture says, 'we shall reap'  So just a word of encouragement, when things seem impossible to bear, keep pressing on (especially with our kids) we will see the fruit of our labor, maybe not right away but in God's timing the fruit will come forth. Stay strong and keep keeping on. See you later at canadagirl

Your garden looks lovely. I love okra, so that would have been fine for me as a first crop. : )
We have had lots of rain also, so we are finally getting some buds on our tomatoes. I can't wait!

I LOVED getting to see your beautiful garden. I REALLY like your sunflowers. I had planted any but God did. I had a volunteer last year and now I have 5 or 6 coming up this year. I will show pics when they bloom. [0= All good things are from our Lord above.

Blessings and ((HUGS)) in Him<><
