I’m Puzzled

Jill L. Ware
Whether you agree or not. He’s got the whole world in his hands.

If I had known, I would have been better prepared. I don’t believe there is time now.

What puzzles me is not this fidget toy in the shape of the Earth. It is that people and my area on this planet seem oblivious to what is already taking place in other countries. Ours is coming, sooner than I ever imagined.

Throughout my life, I thought of the timing of these unfolding tribulations. Never did I imagine it would be in my lifetime.

My realization of this picked a good time to manifest within me. I would not have been mentally prepared even six months ago.

There is one big factor. I’m not full of fear. There is a newfound faith and relationship with God I haven’t had in a long time. My heart was filled with hate, no room for God.

I let go of the hate and traded it for faith. I recommend you do the same. I am no longer a lost puzzle piece.

Where The Green Grass Grows

Jill L. Ware

Water your lawn that it might grow, come to life as if tending ones soul.

Pay no attention to the neighboring blades of grass, the green doesn’t always last.

Some days wilted and pale, “Help!” I hear the neighboring grass yell.

I ignore it as many times before, I beg of you to tend your lawn more.

Add a bit of sun and a little water, tend it as if it were a daughter.

The neighboring grass is quite a sight, yet being there does not feel right.

Tend your own pastures, lawns and gardens, tell you neighbor 1,000 pardons.

I’m sorry if often I stray, God keep me on your path I pray.

The neighboring blades of grass entice with the afternoon sun staring back at me, I am wise to its tricks you see.

In your own yard take a little pride, the grass is not always greener on the other side.

Yielding Rewards

Jill L. Ware

If we put the time, energy and care into our plants they will provide us with nourishment. It is the same for our bodies, mind and soul. If we take the time to take care of our well-being it will show in many areas of our lives. Just as if we ignore our well-being it will also show. God wants us to flourish. So take care of you as you would your gardens.
