A Garden for the Ages

Here's what you need for a successful garden.

Plant three rows of squash:

  1. Squash gossip and criticism
  2. Squash negative thinking
  3. Squash indifference and intolerance
(Protect your garden from Sasquash.)

Plant seven rows of peas:

  1. Prayer
  2. Promptness
  3. Persistence
  4. Politeness
  5. Preparedness
  6. Purity
  7. Patience
(Weed out procrastination.)

Plant seven heads of lettuce:

  1. Let us be unselfish and loyal
  2. Let us honour our commitments
  3. Let us see the good in others
  4. Let us be sure of ourselves
  5. Let us be obedient to the truth
  6. Let us share our good fortune
  7. Let us love and support one another

No garden is complete without turnips:

  1. Turn up with a smile — even when things are difficult
  2. Turn up with determination to do your best in God's service.

(Beware the rutabaga.)
