gardening is faith...

it's believing in another growing season...
planning for the next year or years to come...
in faith, you plant...
and as you watch the seasons come and go...
you get to see the miracle of the life cycle in your own garden...
God's garden...
you have faith in the seed that God gave you...

but where else do you put your faith?
is it placed wisely?

He warns over and over not to place it in man or a building...
but in Him...
and His Son...

God has placed people in my life who were there for me...
some He placed for me to be there for them...
but my faith is not in them, but the ONE who sent them...

He also gives us seeds to plant...
buds to water...
and occasionally...
a harvest to reap for Him...

we were created to be caregivers in His garden...
to tend to the seeds...
He takes care of the hard stuff...
and while on our knees in the garden...
we loosen the soil, trim and prune the "good stuff"...
while weeding out the weeds...
the "bad stuff"...
let that sink in a minute...

have you been weeding lately?

blessings to you, always...
