Blessed...

No one really knows what a blessing homegrown food is. In the society of supermarkets and fast food chains, sometimes we forget the simple pleasures of growing your own food. God is truly blessing our garden this summer. He has given us squash, zucchini, tomatoes, and lots of basil. There is nothing like a sun ripened tomato or that first pot of green beans! I am salivating at the thought... I just wonder is how people look at all of God's creation and still don't believe in His existence! His beauty and grandeur are present in ALL of creation.

Fly with Christ!
