Planting Seeds of Hope EP 35

Here in Ohio, it's still cold but the days are longer and we've seen the sun a bit lately so it feels safe to think of spring. My good friend Teresa is an amazing gardener. It's one of her passions. She plans her vegetable and flower gardens and every year take joy in tending to and then harvesting and enjoying what she's grown. But it starts with planting seeds. That's a hopeful act -isn't it? Planting seeds, giving them water and sunlight and hoping they grow - is a blend of knowing what to do - and Teresa does - and ALLOWING the rest to happen. That part is important too - the allowing. You can't rush it - you can't force things to bloom before they are ready. Patience + knowledge + hope = growth, seedlings that bring their own version of hope for what's to come.
