planting a "true" garden

[mamadude]

This is the time of year when we plant gardens. Here are some ideas on what to plant this spring.


Plant three rows of SQUASH:

1. Squash gossip
2. Squash criticism
3. Squash indifference

Plant seven rows of PEAS:

1. Prayer
2. Promptness
3. Preserverance
4. Politeness
5. Preparedness
6. Purity
7. Patience

Plant seven heads of LETTUCE:

1. Let us be unselfish and loyal
2. Let us be faithful to duty
3. Let us search the scriptures
4. Let us not to be weary in well doing
5. Let us be obedient in all things
6. Let us be truthful
7. Let us love one another

No garden is complete without TURNIPS:

1. Turn up for church
2. Turn up for prayer meeting and Bible study
3. Turn up with a smile, even when things are difficult
4. Turn up with determination to do your best in God's service

After planting, may you grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18), and may you reap a bountiful harvest.

Mamadude...that's the kind of garden I can grow. All others wither up and blow away. While I'm all thumbs a lot of the time, not a single one is green.

Thanks for the inspiration.

A lovely garden you have created, Mamadude...but if I want to see lush, exotic vegetation in full bloom, all I need do is look in "firehead"'s laundry bin... :o
