Day of Praise

Tues, 10/10/17, "Day of Praise" 

"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." - Ephesians 2:10 

I love working in our yard. Love it. It doesn't even seem right to say that it's "working" in the yard. It feels more like playing. 

It's renewing to me. While I "work", I think. And I sing. And I pray. And I look. At the flowers. The birds. The polish on the yard. The possibilities for the yard. 

It's a "work" in progress. 

Just like you. Just like me. Just like the family we're all a part of. God's family. 

We're all a work in progress. Like a garden. God is pruning us. God is enjoying us. Nurturing us so that we can bear fruit, sweet fruit, even as God envisions the possibilities. 

Yes, we are a work in progress. 

But make no mistake. 

We are the focal point of God's Garden Paradise. 

It hardly seems like "work" to God. 

It's love. 

God loves working in His yard. 

So do I. 

I hope you do too. 

Praise God!
