Father God, let this touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
It reads in Job 12:8- Speak to the earth and it will teach you.
I love learning something new. Always wake up wanting to do something new. Like I know plants need someone to care. People say this is crazy. Plants don’t have feelings! Well, if you don’t water a plant it dies. I have had the most beautiful plant and over watered it before. Or I will use the wrong soil and the plant dies. I killed this plant by not using what it likes to sit in its container. I like to spoil the plants. How. Like some plants don’t like to be around other plants. You put a Baby Agave next to an Ivy and tell me if the ivy leaves don’t turn yellow. Hmm! You would probably say: Susan you just didn’t water the ivy! Hmm yes, I did. The Ivy don’t like being around that Agave. If you let dust build up on your plant and you water it, feed it, that plant is going to get yellow and have spots on it because the dust is killing the plant. So, I dust my plants. Indoor plants. Outdoor plants you have a water hose to take care of them. Still outside plants are spoiled and have to look nice and be taken care of or they will die. Plants do need someone to care. Like I grow the aloe vera in the house in the winter. Two years ago, I took the aloe vera outside. Split them up in containers and they died a week later. I found out that I needed to slowly get them used to being outside a little at a time. One day an hour the next day two and so on. Hmm! Plants do have feelings, so you need to care. You ever see a Poinsettia, you break the leaf, and it bleeds white. Hmm! Plants bleed also. See how fast a house plant dies when you put it outside and leave it there. It dies because it doesn’t get spoiled. It is not crazy like some think. Plants love to be well taken care of and loved. I like to plant tree when I lose a loved one. I like to plant anyways. But a tree is strong, and I feel that tree reaches to my loved one’s heart in Heaven. All the way to eternity. See plants can teach us through life’s ups and downs. We continue to learn and grow. I may lose a plant, but the roots will always grow something new and better. I think of all the Agaves, and Yucca Palms I grew when I was ill. It gave me something to do with my hands. I took baby agaves and put them in new containers. I took and cut the baby Yucca palms of the Mother Yuccas Palms and just stuck them in a container of soil. They were not even rooted. They root as they sit in soil. How awesome is this. You can learn so much from plants. I may say they have feelings, but they teach you to love, patients, consistence and to care about the little stuff that some don’t get to ever see.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You the You teach us to care for the little stuff. I thank You and praise You for the many lessons I am learning from Your Word. Guide me to recognize that even in the most difficult of circumstances, You are with me and that Your grace is sufficient. No matter what pressures and problems I may have to face. I thank You and praise You for the reminder that there is a spiritual battle raging in the unseen realm. I thank You and praise You that I have been given the sufficient grace to face all my problems and equipped with the whole armor of God. Increase my faith and hope in You. Guide me to stand fast in the evil day. I thank You and praise You for the beautiful plants that don’t only feed us, but also, they beautify Your world and remind us of Your promises. You will never leave us nor forsake us. I Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.
