Every day when I get home I do a little
walk through the garden. What am I looking for? New leaves. As
each little ear appears I rejoice in the growth and know that in due
time a beautiful plant will emerge. I'm guessing God looks at us in
much the same way. Perched on the edge of his chair as he beholds
all of mankind before him. I guess he also asks, “Will the seed
I've planted grow?”
His seed in us is his word and as his
word takes hold in our lives we are able to grasp his truth and we
grow. As our knowledge of the word grows, we are able to send out
new roots and grow in stability.
As our knowledge and love for God
grows, so our leaves reach towards heaven and we can grow in a
relationship of praise. Praise deepens our relationship and draws us
into the throne room of grace where we can find love, forgiveness and
mercy.
