“My people have planted wheat, but are harvesting thorns. They have worn themselves out, but it has done them no good. They will harvest a crop of shame because of the fierce anger of the LORD.”
Jeremiah 12:13

- Am I tending to what I’ve planted?
Water. Sun. Nutrients. Weeding.
Water. Son. Nutrients. Weeding.
Something to Do
Plant and tend to what I plant.
I have an African violet that has just been foliage for a year and I keep watering it but it never blooms. The other day I spied small blooms, and now it is full on! Not quite like your story but I share in the “hope” of a plant just waiting to get its glory!
