Mind the Memo

IMG_7294

One of the things that I like most about plants

is they seem to have gotten their job memo: Grow.

They don’t know if they are leggy and need to be

clipped back. They are unaware if they are pot bound.

They have no idea if they are misshapen, or ugly,

or beautiful, shiny or droopy, they just go about living.

Fully expecting to be cared for.

They aren’t embarrassed about their looks or their shapes

or their brightness or dullness. They do just what a plant is

supposed to do.

They remind me of the Bible verse found in Ephesians 2:10

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus

for good works,which God prepared beforehand

that we should walk in them.” We don’t need to worry

ourselves about any or it. Its prepared for us. And He

is the best caretaker ever.

I like plants and tennis and book club and classical music and small bowls of ice cream.

I love Jesus, Mr. Fix-it, family and life!

I don’t like driving in the rain or sleeping in.
