My Garden

Recently my husband built this garden for me. I am so blessed to have a husband with a green thumb!

I sure don't have one, but I wanted a garden.

We did however go and pick vegetables together at Home Depot to put in the garden.

In the past Tim has planted things, hung beautiful flower baskets and given me all the plants and  flowers I wanted, which are not cheap!

They look so pretty when you first get them. Only to find that I did not water them and eventually they would wilt become brown and ugly and die! Yuck! Not so pretty anymore.

Isaiah 1:30 (New Living Translation)

 ³⁰ You will be like a great tree with withered leaves,
      like a garden without water.

Like a garden if we do not water ourselves with the Word of God which gives us life we will wither and burn. All things that we put in its place will run dry.

Isaiah 58:11 (Amplified Bible)

¹¹And the Lord shall guide you continually and satisfy you in drought and in dry places and make strong your bones. And you shall be like a watered garden and like a spring of water whose waters fail not.

Faith and hope are our strength and when we run dry we can be confident that the Lord will water those areas that are dry.

 It is a daily requirement if we want to have life!

Are you feeling tired, confused and dry? Do you have a daily quiet time with God?

I challenge you today to spend 15 minutes with the Lord everyday and He will supply the water to freshen you!

Mark 4:32 (Amplified Bible)

³²Yet after it is sown, it grows up and becomes the greatest of all garden herbs and puts out large branches, so that the birds of the air are able to make nests and dwell in its shade.

1 Corinthians 3:9 (Amplified Bible)

⁹For we are fellow workmen (joint promoters, laborers together) with and for God; you are God's garden and vineyard and field under cultivation, [you are] God's building.

     

You don't have to light up the whole world, but you do have to do your part!
