Dear Father,
May I never cease to praise You for the works of Your hand! For as I admire my garden in the spring I am amazed how it manifests not only Your glory but also Your faithfulness after the dark days of wintering and your uniqueness.
Oh, Papa, as I place my life, body, soul and spirit in Your hands, the hands of the great Potter, may my life bring glory to Your name and display Your faithfulness.
Everything in my garden has a unique purpose, and therein lies the beauty and the glory for everything in my garden, that it fulfills its unique purpose. All so different and yet all so beautiful.
Papa may I also bloom in my uniqueness!
Dear Child,
Therein lies the glory! when you bloom in your uniqueness, for only then are you fulfilling the purpose of your creation.
Watered from heaven, nourished by the Word, faithfully tend the garden of your life that the cares of this world, and weeds of discouragement do not strangle and choke the potential bloom.
This bloom in all its beauty will bring glory to My name and testify of My faithfulness, just as your physical garden brings glory to My name and testifies of My faithfulness,
If I wanted a rose in My garden I wouldn’t plant a daffodil. Be yourself! Be who I created and planned for generations for you to be.”
Thus saith My Faithful Papa
Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
Lamentations 4:2 The precious sons of Zion, comparable to fine gold, how are they esteemed as earthen pitchers, the work of the hands of the potter!
Challenge: Don’t labor or strive to bloom in someone else’s potential, but rather bring glory to His name by resting in His faithfulness as the unique flower He created. You are so unique, He broke the mold when He made you!
