May 27th - Morning | FOREVER FRESH
Isaiah 58:11
The Lord will guide you continually, watering your life when you are dry and keeping you healthy, too. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring.
When we visited the 1,050 acres of Longwood Gardens, I read that Pierre Samuel duPont, chairman of the Dupont Company and the General Motors Corporation, had purchased the property in 1906. When du Pont died in 1954 he left the Gardens, “for the sole use of the public for the purposes of exhibition, instruction, education and enjoyment.” Longwood, still funded to this day by duPont's endowment, was a beautiful experience for me to see because of the year round flowers and plants that are always fresh even during cold winter. God promised us something even better – a garden like an everflowing spring that will forever be fresh. |
