Something
will grow
Something
will grow in the garden of your life today. Will it be an unsightly
weed or a beautiful flower? Will it be what you've planned and created
by your thoughts and actions, or will it simply be what you've allowed
by your carelessness and lack of clear direction.
Whatever
you plant will grow in the fertile ground that is today. Fail to
plant, fail to tend the garden, and something will still grow there. But
it probably won't be to your liking.
Walking
through a neighborhood, it is easy to spot the gardens which are
carefully and lovingly tended. They're the bright and bountiful ones.
Likewise, a life that's well tended is filled with the bright, beautiful
rewards of that care and effort.
What will
grow in your life today? The fertile ground is waiting for the seed of
your purpose and the care of your commitment. Today you can grow
something of value and beauty. Just decide to make it so right now.
