Growing in God's garden

God has planted a beautiful garden that grows and produces fruit.  As he tends his garden, He often prunes and removes dead growth.  During this time, the pain of the process cause His children to accuse Him of rejecting them.  God grows an organized well structured garden and desires the best for each person.

Now during this time of pandemic and hate, more than ever before the Children of God must deepen their roots and offer shelter to those in need.  The question becomes how.

God offers patterns for Spiritual Growth - 
1. Assurance of Salvation - Do you know in your heart that you are saved?  Read 1 John 5:13
2. Understanding you are forgiven - The one willing sacrifice of Jesus who gave His life for you is all you need.  Read Ephesians 1:7
3.  Desire to study the Word of God - read the Life manual of God daily.  1 Peter 2;2
4. Pray CONSTANTLY - communicate with God always about all things  Philippians 4:6
5. Be a witness for Jesus by your thoughts, words, and deeds.  Remember to declare the facts  Acts 1:8
    Live before men that they may see your Father who is in Heaven and believe on Him.
6. Be involved in the Local body of Christ - fellowship of believers  Acts 2:4, Hebrews 10:24-25

Daily commit yourself completely, totally to God asking for His guidance and protection.  Depend on God always.

Isaiah 40:31

Those who hope (trust, depend on, believe) in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,  they will will walk and not be faint. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your path straight.(Proverbs 3:5-6) Blessed be the name of the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord always.

Where have you been?

 Have you asked that question of friends, family, classmates, the doctor, the minister, or maybe a complete stranger? BUT have you bothered to ask "Where have you been?" of your relationship with the Most High Triune Lord God?  The Creator of the Universe wants to have a living relationship with you in a one to one time of communication.  In the old song, we are reminded that God is waiting for us to actually speak to him as a person speaks to other humans.  June Deniece William s and Miles C. Austin write:                                     I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses,                                     and the voice I hear falling on my ear,                                 ...
