God is the Gardner!

Which would you rather have around your house?

Planting a beautiful Garden takes so much work. Every flower is planted a little differently. It's the same with people. . .

This is a less known parable from Isaiah 28

23 ¶ Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.

  24 Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?

  25 When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their place?

  26 For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him.

  27 For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.

  28 Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen.

  29 This also cometh forth from the Lord of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.

Just as each seed mentioned is treated and planted differently. So are we as Individuals. The "lord of Hosts" knows each one of us. He knows how we will grow and develop the best. He prepares our soil, our seed and plants us where we can grow. The challenge is how we react, how we choose to respond to the situation in which we are placed.

Do we trust him? Do I trust him?
