Ezekiel 36:26 This new year, one of my projects is turning a stony, weedy, patch of my yard into a flower garden where bees and butterflies can thrive.

November 10th – Colossians 2:6-7
Colossians 2:6-7 When I first started gardening, I didn’t understand how much roots really mattered. I’d plant flowers that looked healthy for a while, but as soon as the heat came, they’d wilt and fade. Their roots were too shallow to reach the water that could’ve kept them alive. God used that simple lesson to… Continue reading November 10th – Colossians 2:6-7

September 11th – James 5:7
James 5:7 Waiting is one of the hardest things we’re asked to do. We live in a world that wants everything instantly, but God often works in seasons.

2 Timothy 2:21 Spring's arrival brings with it a season of preparation. A time when gardeners diligently till the soil and sow seeds in hopeful anticipation of the abundant harvest to come.

September 9th – 2 Corinthians 7:1
2 Corinthians 7:1 I love having a garden. There's nothing better than being able to pick a fresh tomato or maybe a few beans for dinner. But it's also a lot of work. It takes constant attention and if I'm not diligent, the weeds will take over and choke out the tender plants. The Christian… Continue reading September 9th – 2 Corinthians 7:1
