Lately I have found myself reflecting on our garden and the endurance it has given me. For the past three years, we prepared the soil, planted the seeds, weeded occasionally waiting to harvest what grew. But to be honest, there was a lot of belly aching when it came to the garden always producing what seemed like a lot of weeds rather than produce.

I would comment on how maybe we should be using weed killer, which we still don’t, or that maybe we need to change our approach to taming the weeds so that we weren’t having to be out there twice a week tidying it up.

You see. There are no short cuts in life that will ever make the fruit taste as good as it does when you've put in the work. 

Today, I'm going to share how sometimes we focus on areas of our lives that are easier for us while we neglect areas that would make us work a bit harder. But like the garden, if we don't tend to the entire plant and water the entire root system, we can't grow into the people we were made to be.
