    A Day of Rest!

    I was aware today and so spoke what I knew. “It is a day of rest in the garden Lord! I want to sit with you for a while, just quietly and in trust. I have been busy in my heart and mind today.” Master Gardener: “Sit by me then, and let’s drink of love Krista.” Me: “Yes Lord!”

    Later on: “Lord, how can I move on and forward and guard my heart, but be who you created me to be still and grow?” Master Gardener: “Pray.” Me: “Yes Lord! Lord?” “Yes Krista?” I yield to you. I let go!” He smiled and pulled my head to his chest. “That is what I need from you, he said,- trust, surrender, patience, and keep your heart and eyes on me. I am your completion, perfection, and destination!” Me: “Thank you for this day of rest! The Master Gardener: You are most welcome Krista.

  • For Purpose!

    For Purpose!

    There is a lot to do in my garden this week. I want to sit and enjoy, but first the work must begin. Sowing seeds for a fall harvest today, this means i need to work the ground and ready my soil and I am seeking the help of the Master gardener to help me in this stage. I sometimes mistake weeds for plants and plants for weeds. There may be a few plants to keep and place in another part of the garden. I also have a lot of learning to do today. It is wonderful to be alive and to begin to be more intentional in my garden. Even the pain takes on new meaning and at the end of even today, I will be able to sit and reflect and enjoy some of the fruits of my labour! I am not labouring alone, I found this doesn’t work, Jesus is hear guiding and providing for me. I am in a season where maybe one or two others step into this garden, but I have areas now only for me and Him. It is becoming a larger part of my garden too, but I see now that this is by design and not to punish me or others, it is for purpose! I pray you ask and yield to the guiding and help of Jesus in your own life! He loves you and so do I!!!

    Wade in the River

    Today I have gone down to the river to swim. There has been a long spell of learning this morning and growing. It has taken hard and dedicated work. I took time to sit and absorb all I learned, and now it is time to wade into the river and swim. I welcome the refreshment. It is important to continue on in the learning and standing my ground, but refreshment and rest are just as key! Friend I hope you live today! I have, and I pray you grow too!!!
