Sunflower Garden and a Few Moments of Fear

May 16, 2011 Lana

Our Garden has been so much fun!  God has truly breathed life unto the seeds that were planted.
(The following Sunflowers are ALL from our Garden!  Isn’t God Good?!?)
Texas Orange Sunflower
Not only have the kids benefited but the adults just marvel at God’s goodness and His Wonder!
Texas Orange Sunflower
How a little seed sprouts with just the warm sun, water and soil.
Truly Amazing…Amazing Love!
Texas Orange Sunflower
Flowers can just brighten my day (and no calories!)
  Baby Sunflower
When the blooms started to open…I got kind of scared.
Not scared in the gas pedal stuck to the floor and the emergency brake not working
but the “lightly scared” category.
Baby Sunflower
My Little Fears
  • What if the flower didn’t bloom correctly?
    What if a hurricane blew in and none of the flowers made it?  (That is what happened before.)
  • What if a wild animal came into the sunflower garden and trampled all the sunflowers?
  • What if I bought the wrong seeds and they were really for cooler temps?
Almost like I was asking…
  • What if God didn’t know what He was doing when He formed the flowers?
  • What if God doesn’t really know what He is doing when He sends a storm in our lives?
  • What if the enemy did destroy, is God not greater than even death?
  • What if all the timing is wrong and I’m not really supposed to be here even for a time or place such as this?

Then I  we  you they bloomed!
Blessings to you!  You are loved!
