The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

His Garden


Share his love which needs to be sown
Accept these gifts, open them so they may be known

His heart beats with pure love for all each and every day
His joy is in getting to know us as we begin to see and obey
Worry not that you may have strayed away from him

Doubt not in his mercy, for he will forgive all of our sins

Go to that beautiful place within your heart
Seek His peace that flows joyously from this heavenly spot
He desires our love and charity, which is to be shared with all

He waits each of us to journey with Him and answer His call

Do not be tripped by any crumbling stones
The Lord is our rock, the sturdy foundation of our homes
as we hold tight to the Lord and His word that we speak

He will be with us to crush this rubble beneath our feet
As we live in His presence and share His love as we grow

We begin to see the light ahead on this long ventured road

Along the way He fills our hearts with al
l that we need
He plants and then tenders His most precious seed

Our hearts are His glorious gardens of truth
As we allow Him to nourish and prune us we will begin to bear fruits




John 15;1-8
1"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. 3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. 5"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. 8This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.
