The Gardener Pray first. That is what my grandmother told me. Pray over your seeds. Pray over your weeds. Pray over your shovel and the work you intend to do. Do nothing without him... As it would be of no value, in the end. A blessing is needed, to make things grow... from nothing to tall trees, of every size, and flowers, of every color. The rainbow in the sky, and on the earth. One to see, one to touch... One to know a promise has been kept, and the other... that we are never ever alone. He is here, with us. "How does your garden grow?"
