God Protects the Garden
October 2, 2022
I asked for Him to shelter the garden under His wings and protect it from freezing.
I was happy to hear this from my friend Linda on how God answered her prayer for her garden.
She was rejoicing that morning at God's gift! The weather report predicted that on Friday and Saturday nights the temperature would be in the upper 30's with Sat being colder. Sabbath morning there was sign of a light frost on the garden boxes. So Linda took blankets out in the last few rays of light in the evening and asked God for undeserved mercies. She asked for Him to shelter the garden under His wings and protect it from freezing.
Awaking very early she went out at 2 a.m. to check the temperature and it was 55F! It was much warmer than the night before! She was prepared for the worst and received the BEST! God is so good!
