Lessons from the Garden #2




I cannot walk through Fran's garden without thinking of the care and work she has put into it being a productive, beautiful space. I also cannot be in it without realizing how much God loves us and gives us provision.

a few words from...

IN MY GARDEN

I GO WALKING IN MY GARDEN;
IT IS MY SECRET PLACE.
I END UP SPENDING TIME THERE
WHEN I WANT TO FEEL YOUR GRACE.

THE BEAUTY OVERCOMES ME.
THE FRAGRANCE FILLS THE SPACE.
THE BIRDS SING ALL AROUND ME
AND THE TEARS RUN DOWN MY FACE.

~~~~~~
Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
Matt. 10:29-31

I love your walks through the fields of wildflowers and the gardens of friends! If only everyone could comprehend the fact that our Lord and Savior knows every molecule of our being, we wouldn't have to worry if anyone was saved and under His grace! You glorify His name in every post! Thank you!! Hugs and enjoy the day!

Thank you sweetie! I am thrilled when anyone is touched and brought closer to relationship with God through such simple and yet beautiful things found in a garden or field.

He reveals Himself every second if we just pay attention and breathe in his gifts!
