Pray 4 Spain 24/7

I inherited several flower pots when I came to Spain. I thought most of them had not survived the cold winter  and snow on the patio. I  figured I would have to purchase some new plants come spring. Well spring came, and low and behold in one of the big clay pots, tiny green shoots started appearing, soon they became tall, straight green leaves. Daily watering and the warm sunshine caused the most interesting thing to happen... two beautiful orange lilies bloomed! I could not believe it! What I thought was dead and had no life came alive again. It reminded me of the way that God works: someone plants the seeds of hope and salvation, someone else shares a testimony, someone else uses kind words and thoughtfulness, and the seeds of faith grow. At some point, all this care and love causes a flower to bloom and new life to begin. Paul explained it this way to the Corinthians, " I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building. " I Corinthians 3: 6-9 I better check out the other pots!
