Spring Garden
May I take you on a tour of my garden?
Clematis vines twine around wrought-iron topiaries. Giant purple flowers with yellow centers bob against forest green leaves. Iridescent pink roses clothe a bush in the upper beds. A carpet of pink petals dusts the rock wall.
Hidden beneath the bush, a water-loving four leaf clover fills a birdbath where butterflies perch and drink.
Daisies sway in the breeze. Cascading crimson trumpet flowers beckon hummingbird moths to drink sweet sips of nectar. Life bursts from the ground, unfurls in the trees and flutters through the air.
Symmetry, harmony and beauty flow in the lines of a garden. Rest, shade and nourishment feed the body and soul.
“…You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.” Isaiah 58:11
I want to Live Above Neutral as a well-watered garden… ordered, life-giving, restorative…created by my Maker for His pleasure and usefulness.
