The life and trials of a growing Christian- Day Sixty One

I planted our early spring garden today, and I'm very hopeful that we'll have plenty of great fresh vegetables to eat and give away. I really like the time I get to spend outside working in the yard and garden. It's a time when I get to be alone with my thoughts and prayers. Yes, I pray a lot when I'm working outside. My mind gets to go free, there's no time restrictions or distractions, just time with God. I know that He already knows everything about me, but I get to tell Him what I'm thinking, I get to confess my faults, my hopes, and my dreams. I get to pray for those who I might have overlooked earlier. By talking to God and telling Him all of these things, I am drawn closer to Him and my spirit gets refreshed and renewed.
