From the Flowerbed

So this winter was especially hard on my flowers. Many people lost a lot of plants. I was fortunate and didn't lose any. Now that Spring has arrived there is new growth EVERYWHERE! I love this time of year when everything is new. The neat thing is that all of my flowers seem to be growing bigger, stronger and prettier than ever before - interesting I thought. So it appears that when you have a hard winter much dies off but when the new growth comes out it is bigger and better. Much like our lives when we go through a really hard season - if we have a good root system we will come out bigger and better! There is a catch though! Just as the flowers are doing amazing, so are the weeds! As my flowerbed looks better than it ever has, I have to work harder to keep the weeds out - I really have to stay on top of them because they really don't want my amazing flowerbed to flourish! Not unlike the enemy who is working extra hard these days to keep the Body of Christ down! Stay on top of your weeds!!
