Bread for the Journey
Last Saturday I visited a beautiful woodland garden that is only open to the public a few times a year. I was struck by all the varieties of plants that this gardener has grown and the labor it takes to create the beautiful spaces that I was able to walk through. My time there reminded me of our own Master Gardener who has created all these things for us to enjoy and the strength for this earthly gardener to create these spaces.
This is a great time of year to see new growth. If you need a reminder of God's goodness to us I would encourage you to take some time to step out into the world around you that He has created. Visit a garden or a meadow or take a walk around your neighborhood with eyes that are open to see something new that you haven't noticed before.
Ask Him to open your eyes to see and I believe you will have cause to worship Him again with fresh eyes.
Psalm 100 (ESV)
Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
2 Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!
2 Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!
3 Know that the Lord, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!
5 For the Lord is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.
