One Who Plants A Seed

 

 Believes in God

 

The absence of a caretaker this winter has been hard but there has been an unexpected pleasure. I have had the privilege of starting the organic seedlings in our greenhouse.

This began in early February with twice daily visits, many in the dark of night and pre-dawn times as I returned from or left for my office in Henderson.

It has been 11 years since I’ve did this and I am reminded anew of the beautiful possibilities contained in each tiny seed. One who plants a seed truly believes in God.

Each morning I tended them and then stood over them and asked blessings on them; each evening, a silent moment of thanks for the wonder of it all.

There are now transferred to the garden to come to their full potential and be food to enrich our campers bodies and minds.  

Their roots touch the fertile earth, a spring rain comes and all creation rejoices at yet another miracle.
