Plant what?


I absolutley love flowers, and gardening! You have to work for a beautiful garden: weeding, watering and fertalizing it to become beautiful. The same principle applies to our life. In order to live happily, we must take care of our hearts, strengthening them through love, and kindness.
In the book of Ephesians chapter 3 vs: 17-19 we learn that:
 ".. Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God." http://lds.org/scriptures/nt/eph/3.17-19?lang=eng#16

This goes back to my original question: "Plant what?" Through prayer, and scripture study we will "plant" Jesus Christ and His gospel into our hearts. He is the Bread of Life, the nourishment to our soul.
I truly do know that this is true!  The gospel of Jesus Christ has helped me to overcome the difficulties that I face and recieve comfort that I need, even daily.  I know that you too, can feel Jesus Christ in your life. Through prayer, and scripture study you will feel Him in your heart. As you read the posts of my blog I pray that you will search for yourself, to know if these things are true.
