FEELING STUFFY?

Plants are a biological filtration system from their head down to their toes. They don’t just go it alone either. They work in tandem with soil microbes to create nutrients out of the very air we breathe. So skip the sterilized potting soil and give them some good old dirt, remember repotting them is a necessity!

BACK TO BASICS – JOY & CONTENTMENT

The first step to overcoming tough times is recognizing what they are there for. God created you to depend upon Him. He uses the bad days and the difficult seasons to remind you of that you don’t have the power to overcome them on your own.

Whether your bad days have been a bump in the road or a major road block they are there to point you to your need of a Savior. You can overcome them — all of them — through Christ who gives you strength.

The next step is to turn to Christ. You’ll be amazed at what happens when you open your Bible and spend time in prayer. If you aren’t party of a local church, find one that teaches the Bible and make sure you get there this Sunday. I’m praying that even now, God will fill your heart with joy, no matter how bad a day it might be.
