     | 6,024 views

     | 3,870 views

    Through Scripture we find that gardening has a lot to teach us about trust. Specifically trusting in God to see us through the difficult times of life.

    “A garden is a grand teacher. It teaches patience and careful watchfulness; it teaches industry and thrift; above all it teaches entire trust.” [i] This quote from world renown horticulturist from the early 20th Century, Gertrude Jekyll, really speaks to the impact a garden can make on a person’s ...read more

I haven't gossiped. I haven't lost my temper. I haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or over ...read more
