Sowing seeds of God’s love through the “thorns and thistles” of this life.
Welcome to the humble beginnings of my ministry, “My Unruly Garden,” in a blog format.
“My Unruly Garden” is the name I’ve given the inner-most chamber of the human heart, where God’s love transforms us, heals us, and gives us hope, as we navigate through the thorns and thistles—pain, suffering, injustice, hardship— of this temporary life. (Hebrews 13:14, Romans 8:18)
Healing in “My Unruly Garden” is a bit messy, yet it provides the nourishment needed to build “A Life That’s Home” with Him, where we find our true authenticity, joy, peace, and alignment. (Proverbs 24:27)
This blog site is a mixed “seed packet” of my soul-expressive artwork, testimony, reflections, journal entries, and prayers, on my ongoing journey that started in 2002, to peel back the layers of our worldly conditioning to understand the complexities and simplicities of learning how to love like God loves.
My hope is that God’s seeds of love that continue to transform ”My Unruly Garden” will also transform yours. (Ephesians 3:17-20)
I’ve had many starts and stops in launching this ministry. My old marketing hat had a hard time letting go, as I spent the past year trying to package the “seeds,” into a more polished, branded, linear version via a book/devotional series, and a nonprofit program.
God kept speaking Habakkuk 2:3– “This vision (nonprofit, book/devotional) is for a future time.” He continued to point me back to step 1 —launch the blog titled, “My Unruly Garden.”
I get it, now—Sometimes you just need to start with some “chaos gardening.”
Plant the blog, scatter the seeds, and see what sprouts.🌱
So without further ado, I invite you into “My Unruly Garden.”
No packaging, no polish, no logo—just raw, authentic content from “My Unruly Garden” to yours.
