The lady: A Private Garden

The lady is a fertile field.

Her tender heart is softly turned soil that awaits the seed.

She carries the potential of massive reproduction.

Her mind is the incubator of dreams and the womb of greatness.

She is irrigated when in love and dehydrated when hurt.

She is enriched by those who love her and stripped by those who abuse her.

Those whom she touches will dine on her harvest.

She will be the end of someone’s famine.

She is a garden.

She is the place where hunger is sated.

She is that place where hungers will be quenched.

She is the place where rich soil will produce fertile food and lives are richer because of her.

She is a garden.

She is the focal point of those who love her and the absolute envy of those who don’t.

Yes, the lady is a garden of love and a field of potential, and it is a field that is to be carefully planted.
 
She is as vulnerable as freshly turned soil.

She is a field open and exposed.

To the lady I warn, “Be careful what you grow in your garden.”

Or better still, be careful whom you let sow in your field.

There are some things that you will not want to be seeded in your heart and your life.

The Bible teaches us that words are like seeds.

Whenever they are spoken, they bring forth fruit.

It suggests that we as Christians are begotten by the word.

That is to say that our salvation is as a result of the words that are sown into us.

That is why preaching is so powerful.

It is word; it is seed sown.

Most major changes in our country have happened as a result of words that are spoken.

If the entire nation is altered by words, then you can be certain that individuals are altered by the power of words.
