I used the weeds as an analogy. There are many people that others disregard, considering them or their thoughts like weeds, so to speak, and never appreciating their worth.

I am to be thankful for all things... and to me, that includes what I might consider to be weeds, because it's all important to God.

Oh know, those are weeds???? No wonder my MIL chuckles when I point out how well they are doing in my yard.

::Praying for my weeds, but saying an extra prayer for the Pansies I just planted.::

i will pray for the pansies Danialla..... bless you...

Thanks for the prayers for my pansies NWT, trust me I have no green thumb and they will need it

I love my weeds though, they don't expect much care from me, they just trust in God's care I guess, and then reward me with color all summer long.

I guess it is kind of like Gods love too. You don't need to work hard to earn it, just trust and it will be shown to you too........

Trust is probably one of the hardest things to do though, especially with some of our backgrounds, but we can always try. And maybe we could try to start now.... with each other. I know we all have been hurt in our past and probably some are more sensitive than others, But........

I also know we are all good people. We all came to the spirituality forum for support because we ARE good people, we care and want others to care about us. I do not believe that anyone came to this forum just to hurt others, but I know that many have been hurt.

Let's try to forgive each other, to see the good qualities in each other and appreciate those qualities, kind of like appreciating the colors of the weeds in our yards... well the many weeds in my yard

Take care everyone and peace to all....

could not have said that better Danialla... great thoughts that i am going to allow to sin k in deep for myself....

i also love the way the weeds seems to require little care ot effort, and i love the analogy you gave of Gods' Love...

even neglect, abuse, curses, chemicals, and fireants have not defeated Gods' creation.. that is truly remarkable and beautiful

Gotta love those fire ants.... Although I have been bitten by them so that love is much, much harder to give

Peace everyone

those ants are really persistent little critters

Ants make a wonderful study of the awesomeness of life here on earth, imo. We can all be inspired by the ant.

"While there is much obsession with finding life in outer space, there are about one million different kinds of denizens of the animal world that breathe without lungs or gills, yet all have the same three body sections, six legs and antennae. I'm sure that up close, their appearance will outdo any special effect space alien. Ants are just one kind of these.

With their combined weight greater than the combined weight of all humans, ants are the most numerous type of animal.

Strong in relation to their size, ants can carry 10 to 20 times their body weight. They work in teams to move extremely heavy things.

Ant brains are largest amongst insects. Mushroom shaped brain appendages have function similar to the gray-matter of human brains.

It has been estimated that an ant's brain may have the same processing power as a Macintosh II computer."

There is alot to compare with ants and human behaviors

i wonder if we saw the same science program on PBS _Sky? ants truly are intelligent.... the program i watched explained how the three segment body type is a prototype for (all?) life forms? trying to remember now... it sounds like you know something about it...

thank you for sharing that..

Truly they are, and from a spiritual aspect, we are told to consider the ant for a model of our own behaviors. We as humans share many categories of "work" with an ant, and to me, the ant shows me another example of God's intelligent design. No, didn't see PBS...but do recall studying ants in the past.

The ant is one of the smallest here on earth, yet they show great wisdom.

I don't pray FOR the ant, but that all of the creation glorifies the rest, and the creator.

smiles the sheep

i like that statement Sky... it re affirms that everything has its place, its purpose, a meaning... by design.....
