Our Gardening Adventures

So, we started our garden and we planted our seeds in the pellets.



Within a few days we had beautiful sprouts growing.




And then...

I don't know how well you can see this picture, but the sprouts are actually wilting. :-( I guess that's what happens when you go for days without watering them.





I believe that one of the best ways to learn spiritual principles is through nature. So we will apply spiritual principles to each phase of our Gardening.

Here is a song that we were able to apply to this phase:

Read your Bible pray every day
Pray every day
Pray every day

Read your Bible every day and you'll grow, grow, grow
And you'll grow, grow, grow
And you'll grow, grow, grow

Read your Bible pray every day and you'll grow, grow, grow

Close your Bible forget to pray
Forget to pray
Forget to pray
Close your Bible forget to pray
And you'll shrink, shrink shrink
And you'll shrink, shrink, shrink
And you'll shrink, shrink, shrink
Close your Bible forget to pray and you'll shrink, shrink

Here is the lesson that I taught the children:
Our plants wilted because they did not get enough water. Jesus is the living water and if we do not get enough of Him, we will wilt as well.

  1. What a beautiful object lesson the Lord gave you to share with your children. I appreciated that.

  2. ;0) When I first saw your picture, I thought, wow, Yolanda's peat pots are a different color. Hers are so light. Now I know WHY!! We have a few things over here as well. The Lord really can teach us a lot from his creations.
