I have to say that the days that I am fortunate to be home....I am so blessed. It is not everyday that you can look out your window to appreciate the scenery of a national forest. The views where I live are simply breathtaking. The sunrises are beyond words and have a tendency to draw you in and make you sit silently to take in the magical changes taking place at the hand of God. I do not take it for granted that I am blessed to live in such a beautiful area!
On days like this one I try to take in as much of my home life that I can. I get joy from all the tedious, daily duties.....watering my plants, feeding our dogs and cats, and yes, the typical house chores. I know some people probably think that I am nuts, these are the blessings that God has placed in my life.
The one miracle in my life that I am getting such fulfillment from is the concept of planting. The Bible mentions so much of sowing the seed. Planting the seed in soil with plenty of minerals and then maintaining it until you are able to reap the gifts from our Lord and our Savior..... this is such a gratifying feeling.
I am taking the plunge this spring and I am going to plant my first garden. I have even gotten a little excited and I planted some cilantro seeds to grow inside while I anxiously await for the Spring season to arrive. I am pampering this little plant. I am giving it all the TLC needed to grow big and strong. Isn't that what our heavenly Father does for us? Through God's awesome powers, my little miracle is beginning to sprout. It is absolutely amazing!
I am telling you.....it is the little things in life that are making such a big deal in my Life....Thank you Jesus!
