Walking with the Lord is not an easy thing. We constantly
have to be on watch for what HE is doing and wants to do
but also, watching and be aware what the enemy is pulling.
He is a very sneaky being; our GOD is a very patient being
and HE never lies, what HE says HE will do, HE will do.

A Watered Garden In the wonderful “Gospel” of Isaiah in the testaments that were written of old God spoke of His living water which is more precious to Him than pure gold. Our soul can be as a watered garden you can see how beautiful they truly are well kept and tenderly cared for and as beautiful as the evening’s North Star. As tending to a luscious garden it can be likened to the care of one’s own soul pulling needless cares and unforgiveness up before they take root and over your heart gain control. Now picture if you will a garden that simply has been left to itself weed after weed choking out the desired flowers and plants and the evil shoots springing up from items that you have not taken time to have dealt. A weed of doubt and a weed of hate and a seed of fear left unattended to will soon take over a beautifully planned garden yes purposely planted by the devil to destroy your soul and your heart which had once loved God and had truly been victoriously pardoned. So now what to do where do you start to pick up the pieces in a garden that has totally gone awry it is not an easy overnight task but, begin by plucking out the devils weeds but at the same time to your God lovingly draw nigh.
