My heart is a garden
In it grows lilies, tulips, roses, sunflowers and every kind of flower

I don’t have an ordinary gardener
My Gardener loves me
He walks through my heart
Watering the flowers that grow day by day
Pulling out the weeds and tending the soil
Gently He shows me that what I thought was a dead flower, is not dead

Whenever I feel like my garden is dead and dreary,
He comes in, and with one touch
With one tender whisper,
Brings my garden back to life

He waters my flowers with hope, love and peace
He tends the soil with care and patience
He pulls out the weeds with strength and wisdom

Everyday He is walking in my garden
Watering and talking to me
Pulling out the weeds
Telling me how to prevent them and correcting me in ways I need to be corrected

He shows me how different flowers grow better in different seasons
He shows me how much beauty there is in my garden
Even when it doesn’t look or feel beautiful

In my heart a garden is growing

My gardener is tending it
Planting new seeds in my heart
Telling me to be patient
Showing me how a seed can grow into a beautiful flower
Whispering that I am like that seed—
G r o w i n g
Reaching for Him and His everlasting love

My heart is a garden and God is my Gardener
