“I think if we all gardened more, they and all of the other birds that fly in the air above and light in my garden below would be better off. I know that God values them no less than I do. So when I plant in spring I also hope to taste of God in fruit of summer sun and sight of feathered friends.” IfsThinkingKnowsLightWould BeValuesSunAirTasteSummerSpringBirdGardenSightPlantFruitBetter OffSummer Sun Book:Inheriting Paradise: Meditations on Gardening Source: Inheriting Paradise: Meditations on Gardening
“Let every Christian be a gardener so that he and she and the whole of creation, which groans in expectation of the Spirit's final harvest, may inherit Paradise. If we Christian's truly treasure the hope that one day we, like Adam and the penitent thief, will walk alongside the One who caused even the dead wood of the Cross to blossom with flowers, then we must also imitate the Master's art and make the desolate earth grow green.” IfsMayArtWholeEarthChristianSpiritGrowsWalksCreationFlowerMastersOne DayExpectationsCrossesGreenFinalsWoodsTreasureParadiseAdamThievesHarvestGardenerDesolate Book:Inheriting Paradise: Meditations on Gardening Source: Inheriting Paradise: Meditations on Gardening
