Welcome to my garden

There are so many jewels in my garden... rich soil, flowers, veggies and herbs, birds, butterflies, hummingbirds, ladybugs, seeds sprouting, the sound of the water fountain, but the best jewels are family and friends when they join me in the garden and share in the peace and beauty of what our Heavenly Father has provided me with. So many jewels, so many blessings. Julie +: )

Peace In The Garden

Devotions by Sarah Young


Enjoying Peace in His Presence


Jesus calling


I have promised to meet all your needs


according to My glorious riches.


Your deepest, most constant need is for My Peace.


I have planted Peace in the garden of your heart,


where I live;


but there are weeds growing there too:


pride, worry, selfishness, unbelief.




I am the Gardener,


and I am working to rid your heart of those weeds.


I do My work in various ways.


When you sit quietly with Me,


I shine the Light of My Presence directly into your heart.


In this heavenly Light,


Peace grows abundantly and weeds shrivel up.


I also send trials into your life.


When you trust Me in the midst of trouble,


Peace flourishes and weeds die away.


Thank Me for troublesome situations;




the Peace they can produce




far outweighs the trials you endure.




I love you,


Jesus

    Hey, I just got to see most of these garden shots in person a few hours ago! With the exception of the quail. The thought crossed my mind to snip a rose or two and bring home with me.....but I didn't have any clippers handy! :)
    Love, Veronica

    Thanks again sis for taking care of things for us. The roses were not in bloom yet when I left. You should have called me so I could tell you where my clippers are!
    Love you!
