In prayer this morning, as I sat enjoying all that God has created I had such a strong feeling come over my heart, I really had to stop and allow it to absorb in to me then I had to sit and really think about the meaning, was he trying to teach me for me or was it for someone that reads my word each day. I know that it did make me feel comforted, and I pray that if it is for someone else that they read these words and understand that God is reaching out to them, that he is willing them to open their eyes and their hearts so that they may have joy in the fullest, that they may know love the way love should be known and that the lonliness and pain that is dwelling inside will begin to become a distant memory! We are not promised tomorrow, we are not promised that life will be flower gardens without weeds, life is a flower garden but no matter how much time and attention you spend making it beautiful, weeds will always find their way in, you can pull them each and every day....and they still grow. Today I pray that if you have weeds in your garden that instead of throwing in the spade and allowing them to take over...that you pull them out, take your last bit of power if you must but pull them, don't allow weeds to take away from the beauty of you...remember we reap what we sow! God is the flower and satan the weed. The weeds are much more plentiful, they grow without nurturing, they will grow when there is no water for them, they will grow in extreme heat, they just grow and grow. The flowers have to worked for, we have to water and feed them, we have to tend them daily, we have to prune them, we have to do a lot so that they grow to the fullest! Some of us get tired of trying to battle the weeds, some of us don't have time to tend our gardens so we give up and allow the weeds to take over, what will be your choice today, are you going to tend your flower beds and gardens or are you going to allow the weeds to ruin them? I pray today that even if your garden is looking overrun with weeds that you find the strength and the will to get out there and pull them, dig them out so that only the beauty remains, no matter how bad a garden it, no matter how far gone, no matter how many years you have neglected your garden, you can make a difference this very moment, you can begin to pull the weeds and to start working on the soil, you can prep the area and be ready to plant seeds so that soon you will have beautiful flowers growing again! Lets pull some weeds today and start seeing the beauty of the flower!!! God bless you all with strength to do what you know you should be doing, with knowledge that it is never to late and with courage to get in the garden and make it beautiful! Love to all in the name of Christ our savior, amen and amen again!!!
The Bible tells us in Galatians 6:7-10: "Don't be misled- you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So let's not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don't give up. Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone-especially to those in the family of faith."
