Summer’s bounty
It amazes me that you can dig
a hole, stick some sticks in the ground, water, mulch and fertilize and
in a year or so God gives you this:
Blackberries!
And peaches – the very first peach we’ve ever grown. It was DELICIOUS!
The same thing is true of seeds. A little bitty packet of seeds
in the ground and a few weeks later, I’m harvesting buckets of green
beans and baskets of squash. I just think it’s amazing…
Good work, God! What a great idea!

It is so great!
Cool! Sheldon and I are trying to grow herbs and veggies on our balcony for the first time: mint, basil, red chili peppers, and chives. It’s a wonderful illustration for the kingdom of God. We plant seeds, but even when we sleep, the plants grow, though we know not how.
