WHAT SHOULD WE BE THANKFUL FOR?
Have you ever asked yourself what makes plants, grass, flowers, vegetables grow? You may answer: it is the forces of Nature of course. And what is Nature? Sunlight?, water? wind? cold? warmth? earth? What is that makes up Nature? Does it create itself? and if you think so.... then you consider Nature to be God, the Creator. Is that so?......Is that what you think?
Let's think about a simple tomato. We are all familiar with it. We all know how very small its seeds are in it and it takes only one of them to grow a new plant of tomatoes. All we have to do is put the seed in the soil (about 3 to 5 millimeters under it), water it, keep it watered and within a couple of weeks you'll see a seedling coming out which keeps growing. The seed opens on top and at the bottom: on top, it comes out of the earth as a green plant, at the bottom it grows roots. Who does the growing? Not the farmer! The farmer only puts the seed in the soil and keeps it watered. Where do you think the atoms for the green plant which will also produce dozens of that delicious tomato come from? From the earth? .... NO! The soil of the earth only produces roots - in fact if you think about it, when you pull the plant out with the roots, you leave a hole in the ground of the exact size of the roots. If the atoms of the green plant and fruits were created out of the soil, don't you think that as the plant grows you would see a hole around the plant of the same size as the plant?.... Imagine an oak tree: if the atoms of the oak tree came from the earth, wouldn't the trunk be surrounded by an enormous hole all around its base?..... It doesn't, does it? The ground around it is always flat: nothing is taken from it for the plant which is growing over it: only the roots take from the soil.
So where do those atoms which make up the tomato plant, the oak tree and all vegetation on earth come from? From the invisible Light we are submerged into!

Love your post Starchild. Think of the Tomatoe plants ? What would happen if we did not weed around them?If we did not put a fence around them? Most important would happen if the plants never had stress (wind,rain,snow,bugs,heat,cold,drought,bugs,ect)? Without being stressed the plant would be too weak to carry its fruit,the stems will break ,the plant will fall over or the fruit wil fall off prematurely.Stress makes the plant strong and sturdy. Our enemies and life setbacks are our stress and thats why I am Thankful for my enemies and lifes setbacks because they made me Strong and Sturdy
