"The secret garden of God's kingdom is within you...Its seeds have already been sown in the depths of the heart. The trick is to allow them to germinate and spring forth."

Kerry Walters, Growing God: A Guide for Spiritual Gardeners

I once took a class where we explored the similarities between a growing faith and a blossoming garden. There were many similarities. I was reminded of that class this morning when I received this quote in my inbox.

"God seeds greatness in every one of us. Nourished by our attention and cooperation, the seed grows."

Mary M. Morrissey, No Less Than Greatness

I totally believe this. How about you?

Just like tending our gardens, we need to tend to our faith for it to grow.
