We all have things in life that hold great meaning for us. And so I decided to take this shovel down off of the garage wall and write about it. Jonnie Wells, chair of the landscape team at WCC had one like it and I always commented on it. I told her that I was going to steal her little shovel.
Well, on my birthday in 2009, she presented me with my own matching shovel. I loved it then, and I love it still.
We worked hard together for many years, with many members of the landscape team to create a beautiful church property. We planted flowers, and shrubs and trees. We used those shovels. We planted lots of trees. I have always believed that creation bears witness to the grandeur and glory of God.
Every time I see this shovel, I have fond memories of such great times. Thank you to all of you who worked to make them a reality. And I thank God that all of us can continue to work each day to make the world a beautiful place.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
