When the mess in your heart is worse than the mess in the kitchen,
When love feels like sacrifice,
When blessings have become burdens,
It's time to put your hand to the plow.
Till that hard heart soil.
Tear up those ugly weeds.
Air out the old grievances for good.
Breathe in the fresh clay.
Plant some new thoughts,
some things useful, true and noble.Begin again. And don't look back.

Love the garden imagery... till, tear up, air out, breathe, plant, begin... thank you for these confirming and encouraging words!
Glad you posted this link on my blog. Yes, we have been thinking alike with the gardening analogy. I love how God can work through any medium to get his point across to us!
Have a blessed day,
Lisa
