[Rev. Doc]

What's In Your Garden?

"The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail."
Isaiah 58:11

It's almost time to get those gardens planted.

PLANT three rows of squash ....
1. Squash gossip
2. Squash criticism
3. Squash indifference

PLANT three rows of peas ....
1. Purity
2. Patience
3. Perseverance

PLANT six rows of lettuce ....
1. Let us be unselfish and loyal
2. Let us be faithful to duty
3. Let us search the scriptures
4. Let us not be weary in well doing
5. Let us be obedient in all things
6. Let us love one another

NO GARDEN is complete without turnips ....
1. Turn up for church, prayer service and scripture study
2. Turn up with a smile, even when things are difficult
3. Turn up with determination to do your best for God's cause
After planting, may you grow in Grace and knowledge.

Prayer: Ask the Lord to help you grow in ways that glorify him.

"Every Christian has a very personal responsibility to grow in their faith. Yet there are times when we seem to stand still. That is when God touches us like the earth in the springtime, bringing new growth and warmth for the faithful souls dedicated to His service."
