I have this plant, a big beautiful plant, that we have had for years. This plant was at my mother-in-laws funeral, so it is special. Well this past winter, it got left out in the cold and got frost bit and looked like it would die (it was bad) it looked like it had no life left in it. It was brown and all the leaves fell off and it looked dead for a long time. When it got warm, my husband said we should throw this plant away it looked dead and has made no progress. I said, "No, let's put it in the son and water it and let's see if it will come back to life. For a couple of weeks it still looked the same, but I kept watering it and made sure it was in the sun. I hadn't paid much attention to it lately, and then yesterday I noticed it had alot of green to it, (it looked like all weeds), so I plucked the weeds out and there were several shoots of green from the plant. Today, there were more shoots and it is truly coming back to life! I was out in the yard this morning with my husband and I told him to look at the plant, I told him, "see, I told you, if we put the plant in the sun and water it, it might come back to life. That is when I got this revelation, that we are like plants in the Lord. We are tender plants that need tending to, in order to grow. Even if we get frost bitten by life (problems and situations) the Lord can revive us, if we want Him too, and do what is necessary to be revived. We like the plant, need to be in the Son (Jesus), and we need to be watered (with the Word) to be able to grow. Without sun and water the plant could not live, also, without being in Jesus and in the Word, we cannot truly live, and it will result in spiritual death. Weeds tried to crowd out this plant and eventually the weeds would have taken over and killed the plant, if the weeds were not plucked out. We also need to keep the weeds in our lives plucked out. Weeds are anything that keeps you from growing in the Lord. It can be selfishness, pride, anger, being critical, judgemental, strife, greediness, gossiping, foolish talking, filling our minds with unclean things, liking to argue with people, and the list goes on. These are things that can hinder on walk with the Lord, and if we don't pluck these weeds out, it can take over our lives and choke out our lives. We need to have the fruit of the spirit, not the flesh (Gal. 5:22)
"For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life." Galatians 6: 8
We can be revived like my plant was, by doing the same things I did for my plant, but in the spiritual. Get in the SON, water yourself in the Word to grow and be refreshed, and pluck out the weeds in your life (get rid of anything that would hinder your spiritual growth!) and just like the plant you can have NEW LIFE!!

Hello everyone!
I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For quite a long time, I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and I started with funny 500 bucks.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Visit my blog to get additional info.
