Take Care of Your own Garden

Thursday, November 25, 2021

In the beginning of the Bible, there is a man, a woman, and a garden. It was to be their garden. It wasn't their neighbor's garden. There were no neighbors. They were to bear fruit to God. God also calls you to bear fruit. In Galatians 5 it speaks about the fruit of the Spirit--love, joy, peace, patience, faithfulness, goodness, gentleness and self-control. Keep your life and your walk with God very simple. You can help your neighbor when they ask and bless them, but your business is your garden. You can't make your neighbor bear fruit. But you can go over to your neighbor's house and bless them. You can bring tomatoes, cucumbers and squash, all the blessings of your garden and give it to them. You are not responsible for their fruit. You are responsible for yours with which you can bless them. So just make sure your garden is fruitful, full of the fruit of the Spirit. The fruit God called you to bear, that's your business. The rest is His business.
