Inspired by an afternoon of gardening
Thank you, Lord, for grass.
Thank you for the colour of the bright blue sky,
Thank you for frogs and leeches, tadpoles and pigeons
Thank you for resilient goldfish
Thank you for friends, for teamwork, for laughter
Thank you for cake
Thank you for sunshine, and for shade
Thank you for energy and strength
Thank you for the visible signs of progress
Thank you for items found that were lost
Thank you for ground reclaimed
Thank you for surprises
Thank you for fences fixed and flower beds de-weeded
Thank you for hanging baskets
Thank you for rest and comfort
Thank you for pizza
Thank you for sofas
Thank you, Lord, for all you’ve made and all you’ve provided.
Matthew
