When Life Is Difficult

My good friend John Foster gave me this sign for Christmas a year ago. It is so true!

The Garden Has Been My Therapy

Here among the flowers and the bright fruit,
when the light is brand new
and everything is fresh and wet
and the leaves are beaded up
with dewdrops,
I work in the household of nature
and refresh my spirit.
It seems to me that every weed I pull
is a bit of grief I am learning to set aside,
a tear I've weeded out
so that good cheer can grow again.

Do you need some inner healing? Go out and get in
a garden with God.
He will heal your soul!
