My garden is ever evolving. But I believe that’s the nature of gardens. Honestly, my idea of gardening evolves too. I love to begin a day here and end a day here. It enlivens me to start my day and calms me to be ready for rest. It’s my small piece of heaven.
When the sales clerk is irritable and far from showing love, may we find joy in knowing Jesus came for us all.
When the stress of the season seems more of a burden than pleasure, may we find joy in remembering why we’re celebrating to begin with.
When Christmas doesn’t go exactly as planned, may we find joy in knowing Christmas has already gone according to the perfect plan.
When we do find joy (or when joy finds us), may we fall on our knees in gratitude for the gift only He can give.
