Ouch!

Today (Wednesday) what started off as a few minutes clearing a shed turned into a day long gardening event!

It was exhilarating to be in the garden - sunshine, bird-song and a sense of God's presence.  Soemtimes I think I can limit the places to where I expect to find God too much.

Weeding I waqs reminded that unless the roots are dealt with it is pretty pointless pulling the leaves off dandelions and I couldn't help think how unless I allow God to deal with things in me at a level beneath the surface I won't fulfil my potential.

Started reading an excellent book by Henri Nouwen, 'The Inner voice of Love' - nuggets of gold on every page.

  1. Sometimes where we least expect to find God, our encounters with Him are all the more powerful...
    pebbles, weeds, tidying up - God is there with us if we take the time to share with Him. May you be blessed as you continue to do this. x
