I have one of those devotional books i got for free in the mail and it is awesome. Most often they say you can't get anything for free but in this case, it is packed full of Good stuff. The last two days it has talked about a garden and how to tend it and honestly it has been amazing what i have learned in what some may call a little concept of gardening. So many people feel like they are planted in the wrong place, myself included and this book has helped me to see so much differently. What if i was planted in the wrong place? "Gardens that flourish enjoy the right location, a location chosen so that whatever is planted can bloom to it's full potential. Even before God created the Garden of Eden he had each of us in mind. He made the entire universe his garden with each of us specifically in his thoughts and and on his heart. God knew precisely what mix of talents and gifts he would blend together so that you would bloom in a way different from anyone else. God knew what nurturing you would require, what weeding would make it possible for you to branch out to your full potential. Your lord made you to be beautiful, precious, and cherished. No one else can fill your place in his garden." It goes on to touch on Psalm 139 it talks about how much God knows us and delights in us. My husband said something last night that really made a lot of sense to me, wow amazing how much wisdom is in the word. The steps of a righteous man are ordered so all we are really responsible for is stepping right and left each foot in front of the other. God is responsible for the rest so don't worry about where your going or how you will get there keep walking one foot in front of the other and bloom where you are planted.
