Opa's garten












We recently visited my in-laws. Something commonly practiced in a land of apartment dwellers is to have an area of town set aside and divided up into "garden lots". Having a garden lot gives you the opportunity to have a bit of "yard" all your own. We LOVE going to Opa's garden. It's like entering a little paradise of flowers, fruit and veggies! It's one of my favorite places to take pictures. My prayer is that Opa's love for gardening would one day be appreciated by him as God's creation and gift! May something so beautiful as a purple plum tree or a dazzling dahlia stir in his heart the love for a Creator! And a need for a Savior from all the thorns and disease amidst this beauty!
