Tending My Own Garden
One gorgeous Saturday afternoon as I was outside weeding my flower garden, I was praying to the Lord about a wicked person, who seemed to be getting away with a lot of evil, and I was asking Him to take care of them for me. I was extremely agitated and emotionally disturbed over the situation. I was rebuking jealousy, control, gossip, the spirit of offense in the other person, when all of a sudden, I distinctly heard, “STOP! Look around you!” So, I looked around me at the
Raise Up a Child
