I've also learned that the garden needs tending everyday, sometimes more than once a day. This post has wonderfully reminded me that our relationship with God needs that same diligent attention!

I love to abide in quiet- as the sun rises with my Bible in hand- but my real world reality is five-kids-noisy and ringing phones and screaming voices- and abiding in that looks more like a desperate woman clinging- clinging to His name and His truth and tossing up 2 word prayers all day long. Messy. But by His grace, fruit will grow.Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11022107791689799322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691458187004102415.post-17407027812263806762012-07-30T11:33:45.803-04:002012-07-30T11:33:45.803-04:00What a neat analogy!

In tomatoes--another beautiful way to see abiding.<br /><br />For me, abiding in this moment is holding on to tight to grace, trusting it will be there for me this week as I pack my daughter to move off to college, and trusting grace to be there for me next week in my first week without any kids in the house. A new season of abiding.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.com
