It's a Knockout




    Here is my new knockout rose garden outside my door.  There are three pink knockout rose bushes with two other plants I had that are more visible now after being transplanted here.  I do not have a green thumb so hopefully it won't be an ever changing flower bed.  My dad put alot of hard work into this so I hope the roses will last as long as the previous 30yr old ugly bushes did.
    Am I to worry over their fate or mine?  Luke 12:27  “Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.''  We are all designed, created and cared for by God every day.  We may have our droopy days but the Son will shine on us and revive us again.  Let us nourish ourselves with the Word, join together in fellowship with others and bloom brightly for Him.
    'Be the rose. Bloom. Spread Beauty. Be a Good Bud. Grow Gracefully, Spread Sweetness.'

  1. Your dad did a beautiful job! And I'll bet those roses will be smelling so good in no time at all. Sometimes I feel like a thorn among the roses, but I know God can make all things beautiful! So thankful that He does continue to mold old pieces of clay into His beautiful design, if we will only allow Him to do so. I long to always bloom where I am planted, wherever that may be! Love you, dear friend....T.

  2. If the roses don't work out in 30 years let me know and I will redo the bed. I was glad to do this for you. Dad

  3. Every now and then I need a word of encouragement like this one. Thanks, Angie. What we know in our heads does not always translate in everyday life to our hearts. I don't ever want to think that my Divine Gardener can't or doesn't do His job, because HE DOES! Praise the Lord!
