While in the springtime of your life,
Sow the seed and watch it grow.
It is the season when the seed
Will send root down deep below.
Choose only seed that will flower
Into blossoms beauty rare.
Sow them closely so the weed seeds
Cannot ever take root there.
Water the seed with faithfulness,
Cultivate with daily prayer,
Allow the Son to shine on you,
Breathe the Spirit's cleansing air.
Then firmly, when the strong winds blow,
Your strong root will fasten sure;
The flower sunk deep in God's Love
Forevermore will endure.

With the exception of 1 year living in Boston, Mass.,and two years in Hanau, Germany, I have lived in the historic state of Virginia all my life. I now reside in the beautiful Roanoke Valley. Though raised in a Christian home, I was in my early 20’s before making a commitment of my life to Christ. Since then I have spent many years in full-time ministry. I am currently employed as an accountant with a Christian child care center in Roanoke and also serve as the Office Manager and Scheduling Coordinator for singer and songwriter Mary Rice Hopkins who resides in California.
