How Does The Garden Grow

It has been a number of years since I planted a garden. This year it seemed like God was nudging me to do it, so I have. As I look out my kitchen window I see some large green tomatoes, herbs, and other interesting things that managed to survive my handiwork. Most house plants I have had have died a slow death, so this garden flourishing seems unusual for me. This morning God answered the question above for me.

Dueteronomy 28:12 The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.

Deuteronomy 15:10 Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the Lord thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.

The answer is really simple. God is blessing the work of our hands. He teaches us His ways, and He blesses our ability to follow Him. He even picks us up when we fall down, brushes us off, and puts us back on the path.

God is good!

Prayer
Father, we praise You our Most High King. Thank You for your blessings in our lives. Thank You for Your mercy and grace. Please forgive us our errors. We ask that You show Yourself strong on our behalf with healing, deliverance, and provision that all men might know that You alone have done this. In Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) name. Amen.
