I love the analogy that prayer is like planting a seed. Sometimes think God isn’t listening, but He is. He just needs bring things about in his Perfect Timing. Thanks for this little reminder!

I love the image of a flower growing from a seed to represent God’s Kingdom, it reminds me of a mind picture I had. Ah the fragrance and beauty of Heaven. Hugs.

I’ve never heard of this book, but I heard Patsy Clairmont speak last summer at the Atlanta Women of Faith. She’s so funny! I loved reading this quote — it’s definitely something I needed to read today. Thanks for sharing it!

Wondering what you’ve got going on here for Christmas! I’ll have to check back and see…

Oh yeah, patience. Need to find some of that, it is probably in the hamper or under the pile of books on my desk. Wanted to let you know that I am so enjoying that book. I think it is the only one I haven’t read by her. In fact I read a chapter aoud to the family during devotions today, Rachel and Shamus both loved it so much that they each decided they needd to read it when I finished it.

I agree with your thoughts here, sometimes we are in so much of a hurry to get answer that it happens in God’s time…

Iris, thank you so much for posting this. It is the silence and waiting that are so difficult.

Blessings.
