From a valley of death to a valley of life....
This caught my attention this am...be sure and watch the video...
We have been through Death Valley several times, visiting Scotty's Castle, staying at Furnace Creek ( when it was soooo hot), seeing cacti bloom across the horizon, walking through the borate exhibit, driving the lonely two lane road across the desert in the heat...all beautiful in its own way...but deadly for the unprepared...
I enjoyed the way the ranger described that there are millions of seeds waiting to flourish, waiting for the right combination of water, weather to make the flowers spring to life instead of the dryness and heat..to be a "super" bloom of flowers showing their glory and radiance for all to see...
We humans wait for our " super" bloom as well...just the right amount of watering,tending in our lives for a harvest of righteousness...there are those who sow, water and some reap in the lives of others...drawing lives to come to the kingdom...God is the ultimate Savior, but he may use people to water, tend the Word in others' lives...making a "super" bloom of dry seeds in the dry and thirsty lands of our lives ....He may use a film, a tract, a Bible, a radio broadcast to water the souls of many, bringing them to a saving knowledge of Christ..in desert land...to "bloom" for Christ...
Thank YOU that nature points back to You...gives You the Glory...in it intricacies, and beauty...
James 3:18 Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
Job 37:13 He brings the clouds to punish people, or to water his earth and show his love.
Psalm 65:9-13 You care for the land and water it;you enrich it abundantly.
The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain,for so you have ordained it.
You drench its furrows and level its ridges;you soften it with showers and bless its crops.
You crown the year with your bounty,and your carts overflow with abundance.
The grasslands of the wilderness overflow;the hills are clothed with gladness. The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain;they shout for joy and sing.
Psalm 107:35 He turned the desert into pools of water and the parched ground into flowing springs;
Galatians 6:8b.... whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
