What is growing in the garden of your life?

By Sandra Lee Herron, Crystal Cathedral Pastor

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition,

with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends

brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever

is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or

praiseworthy – think about such things.”

-Philippians 4:6-8

Spring is the time for new growth. Trees bud, flowers bloom, and birds sing their

Numbers 11. The place Named Taberah. The Seventy Elders

1 And when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp. 2 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched. 3 And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
