Harvesting in many ways....

     Another great Sunday!!!  We have come to the apex of Jesus' sermon on the mount when He just comes out and asks people to come through the narrow gate and up the hard way to life, knowing that few will accept.  It was so natural this Sunday just to ask if anyone would like to go through the narrow gate.  8 stood!!!  You alone have to go through the gate and the gate is so narrow that you have to drop off everything else to get through it.  After you get through you are told that it will be hard but the reward is like none other.  Many times you might few like you are the only one on the road and all you can lean on is God.  Harvest in the church.

     Here is a picture of another harvest.


The bag on the left is 2 kinds of kale.  The center bag is a combination of beet greens, collards, red and white chard.  The bag on the right is turnip greens.  These are my proteins and also in combination with some fruits and other vegetables has been keeping me going.  It is so great to go to the garden to gather these and not purchase them through the store that we did through the winter.  We are excited to see if we will be able to extend the harvest through the hoop house.

     The garden takes a lot of work but worth it just as the work of the church of Christ.  It is so worth it teaching and serving and sacrificing to see others come to a point to be harvested by God.  The soil in the garden is so important and so is the soil in the church.  God help us to continue to work the soil in and around the church to produce not only new followers of Christ but also mature disciples of Jesus.
