How To Plant Your Garden


First, you Come to the garden alone, while the dew is still on the roses....

FOR THE GARDEN OF YOUR DAILY LIVING YOU,

PLANT THREE ROWS OF PEAS:

1. Peace of mind
2. Peace of heart
3. Peace of soul

PLANT FOUR ROWS OF SQUASH:

1. Squash gossip
2. Squash indifference
3. Squash grumbling
4. Squash selfishness

PLANT FOUR ROWS OF LETTUCE:

1. Lettuce be faithful
2. Lettuce be kind
3. Lettuce be patient
4. Lettuce really love one another

NO GARDEN IS WITHOUT TURNIPS:

1. Turnip for meetings
2. Turnip for service
3. Turnip to help one another

TO CONCLUDE OUR GARDEN WE MUST HAVE THYME:

1. Thyme for each other
2. Thyme for family
3. Thyme for friends
4. Take Thyme for prayer

WATER FREELY WITH PATIENCE AND CULTIVATE WITH LOVE. THERE IS MUCH FRUIT IN YOUR GARDEN BECAUSE YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW.

NOT BAD, HUH?!

Great thoughts and tips. (Also the post below it with the bear). Your blog is an inspiration to me--I've needed it lately--I tell people, I'm walking a 'faith walk' right now, praying and just trying to rest in the Lord and praise Him for working in my life. I'll be back for more!

Oh, and I love your banner--cool colors and cute cup--is it yours? I'd like to get one like it.

Hi there! Hope you are recovering from your surgery. Thanks for coming to visit me again. It's fun to connect with Texas girls. I'm really from Texas but have lived in Oklahoma for 20 years. Texas is in my soul. Love those Piney Woods!
