I have to add this. I've always known God is with me in the garden, but today as I delighted in all the beauty there, I realized that he's delighting in me. Talk about overwhelming joy!
Girl...that's prophetic. I just told someone today that I'm tilling the soil of my soul and I'm tilling the soil of my children's hearts. I'm so thankful for this channel
These garden devotionals have been such a blessing to me! I've struggled with fear and ptsd after my daughter fought a brain tumor. By God's grace she is now healed! Thank you Jesus... but everytime her mri check ups come around, fear starts to creep back in! Putting on the full armor of God. Thank you for these. Also a fellow homestead dreamer 🥰
I come to the garden alone, While the dew is still on the roses, And the voice I hear falling on my ear, The Son of God discloses... And He walks with me, and He talks with me, And He tells me I am His own, And the joy we share as we tarry there, None other, has ever, known!
I'm 61 and in my early 20s was able to spend a year planting (beginner) and reaping and a feeling massively close to God. The deceiver came against me in a big way and I never got to do it again. You've reminded me of how it felt to walk in the Garden with the Father and that that is my happy place. Thank you.
6:27 - "I see this major move move towards the garden. People are fascinated by it, people are falling in love with it, people are learning. I feel like we're going to be able to watch, over the course of the next 5 to 10 years, this major shift move to the garden." - Jessica Sowards, August 14th, 2019
THANK YOU JESS FOR THIS WONDERFUL DEVOTIONAL! WE TOTALLY AGREE and WHAT MAKES THIS DEVOTIONAL SO SPECIAL IS THAT OUR PASTOR THIS PAST SUNDAY TALKED ABOUT HOW GOD SPOKE INTO EXISTENCE EVERYTHING ELSE but TOOK THE TIME AND KNEELED DOWN AND GATHERED THE DIRT IN HIS HANDS TO FORM MAN - US!!❣❣❣❣❣
Decades ago when I was working in my backyard garden one day, a neighbor was watching for a while. Then said "they who plant a seed and expect it to grow, truly believes in God". I never forgot that.
Amen Jess thank you for your faithfulness and love of the Lord. Have a blessed day dear, thank you for sharing your heart & faith . I do spend my most delightful time each day in the garden with the Lord😍💖👼
As a Wiccan preistess for over 25 years, i can only express joy in seeing the Children of Abraham returning to put their hands and love back into Mother Earth. Welcome home child. May your Jehovah shower you with blessings.
OMG!!!!! Thank you for listening and obeying the voice of God. This devotion video really gave me life. Its exactly why I love my garden. It's all in containers but I feel connected when I grow and sow. Thanks again 🙏❤. I'm listening and watching 🌞
Not sure if you are familiar with this poem by Robert Frost, but it definitely resonates with what you spoke about ... God made a beauteous garden With lovely flowers strewn, But one straight, narrow pathway That was not overgrown. And to this beauteous garden He brought mankind to live, And said: 'To you, my children, These lovely flowers I give. Prune ye my vines and fig trees, With care my flowerets tend, But keep the pathway open Your home is at the end.' Then came another master, Who did not love mankind, And planted on the pathway Gold flowers for them to find. And mankind saw the bright flowers, That, glitt'ring in the sun, Quite hid the thorns of av'rice That poison blood and bone; And far off many wandered, And when life's night came on, They still were seeking gold flowers, Lost, helpless and alone. O, cease to heed the glamour That blinds your foolish eyes, Look upward to the glitter Of stars in God's clear skies. Their ways are pure and harmless And will not lead astray, Bid aid your erring footsteps To keep the narrow way. And when the sun shines brightly Tend flowers that God has given And keep the pathway open That leads you on to heaven.
This is beautiful and reminds me that I was reluctant to start a garden (failure, lack of knowledge, time) but it started with a seed. There is a path to walk to get to the garden, putting faith and trust in Our Heavenly Father is the first step. It's a gradual step but I recognize He is giving me what's needed and He gives us all when we seek. Oh I did put an egg in the hole, and the tomatoes are growing, one 7ft! Thank you for your time❤
Thank you, Jess, for your blessing! I did receive the garden you know and a new perspective on God’s love for me that I have longed for. Not having the love of my earthly father fit a wedge between me and the love I knew I should feel and understand. Your lovely words brought tears to my eyes and feeling to a numb heart. You did bless me and now I can go to the garden inside to be with the God I love and even ... who loves me
I’m so glad I found your channel. The garden info was and is life changing but when I found your devotional pieces, I knew I was led to you for a reason. You’ve changed my relationship with Jesus and that is a gift beyond measure. Thank you.
When you said, “We don’t have to wait until we die to live with Jesus,” it was like a light bulb moment! ❤️ I’ve never met you, but I love ya, sister! God definitely speaks through you! Thank you!
People ask me WHY are doing always in the GARDEN? Because the Lord is there and I can find PEACE. I feel the Lord when I wake up and my first tomato is ripe on the vine or my tiny seeds start to break ground. It's like God says SURPRISE! Look what gift I have for you today. God is so good! Thanks for sharing your message today Jess! What a blessing you are in so many ways. Rhonda
What a wonderful, delightful time spent with you, and with the Lord! My heart is filled with joy, as I hear my walk expressed through you.... dieing to self, Intimacy with God, being His Bride, and being Gods resting place! Thank you Jess, for sharing such a precious message. Blessings to you and your family.
When you said God is calling people back to the garden....I got chills. You see I am one of those he is calling back. I feel lkke this devotional was personally delivered to me from God. He gave you the exact words to speak for my hearts understanding. Bless you sweet Jess.
I never new why the peace and joy in my heart was so abundant as when I’m alone in my garden. Little did I know the reason I wanted to be physically alone was so God could talk to me! Thanks to your devotionals I m understanding my relationship w God. He knows I need your knowledge and talent to express his teachings. I’ve always loved him w my whole heart now I must trust he loves me ❤️ Thank you Jess
I finally got to sit and watch this. I am never disappointed- I can’t thank you enough for being the reason I found God and the garden. I never had a real relationship with God till I saw “infinitely more” from you. Can’t wait till the next devotional. Bless you and your family.
Thank you. God has gifted you with a heart for the Lord and I am so glad you share it with us. I am 62 years old. with a passion for teaching people to get back to basic in gardening in their backyard . I own "Gospel Urban Farmer". I love the one on one with people to share the love of the Lord. You spoke words into my heart as to why I have been going thru a change of letting go of so many of my volunteer things to be able to focus on this wonderful opportunity to share the Lord with all who come to my garden to learn. Thank you .
I’m watching this now in September 2021 and you talking about people getting back to the garden and thinking about when Covid happened in March/April of 2020. I wish I had seen this when you published it because it’s like God told us thru you that we needed to get in the garden and grow food and become closer to him again as we should be. I love your devotionals there is always something in what you say that speaks to me. I know myself that I need to be closer to God and I’m working on it. Thank you so much. Have a blessed day. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👩🏻🌾🌱💕
You Jess are truly sent by Jesus to remind us of our role as the resting place of Jesus. Thank you so much You have enriched my mindset and heart space so much in this last week. I am truly blessed by your videos to bring me back to where I was in 2010 spiritually. The garden was my refuge and my prayer space. Im working on making it that way again. God bless you abundantly.
Wow. How much more profound this is right now. “God is calling people back to the garden..” You’re entire devotional is packed full of “ah-ha” moments. Thank you so much for sharing this- I’m just now finding it, but it’s the perfect timing for me. Isn’t Gods timing just so....Perfect?
Praying these seeds take root in ALL who listen. It's HIS desire all come to HIM and we are ALL made in HIS image, even if we don't believe! Praise Yahweh for HIS Goodness and Mercy.
Thank you Jess. I've been watching your devotionals trying to find my faith. Saying I'm the garden touched me. I don't feel that way yet. I think I'm a sprouting seedling in your garden, and you are helping me grow in faith. I thank you for these videos❤
Hi Jess, I'm not Christian, but I enjoy your devotionals so much. I find a great deal of peace and wisdom in them. Thank you, as always, for sharing with us.
I just found your channel 2 days ago. I used to have a vegetable garden several years ago but stopped because of a move and having kids. Just a few days ago I saw a little old lady selling veggies out of her garden. I stopped and bought a few. I came home and started writing down a list of everything I needed to start a garden asap. I feel such a draw to start gardening again, that same day I built a garden bed, filled it and planted 3 different veggies! It just felt like a sense of urgency. What you said is so on point! I absolutely love your devotionals and your wisdom. You are an inspiration and I really wish you were my neighbor! Haha
[Stephen’s wife, Laura] Jessica - that was breathtaking from beginning to end. How precious are the fruits of the Holy Spirit! Thank you! May the hand of God bless all that you do and touch! In Christ, Laura.
Thank You so much for the great Devotional. I brought answers to feelings I was having. My happiest place is my Garden and now I know why. Thank You. Will save this Devotional to listen to from time to time for reassurance. God Bless and Peace Be With You All ☮️
Gardens are the most amazing part of creation we can join in on in some small, very satisfying and spiritual way. God talks to everyone, not everyone is listening.
Thank you so much Jess for being such an open, genuine inspiration and for your willingness to share yourself and your experiences with us. You are a blessing.
This sparked a whole quest for more knowledge on God and this subject of his resting place. I mean...it's really MIND BLOWING!!! I reread the creation chapters again and gained a whole different perspective that I had not had before! I sure work on being a resting place for God! I love your devotionals! Thank you so much!!!
It always amazes me how relevant your words are, how much they resonate with the seasons of my life. During these waning days of summer, the bounty of the gardens, preparing for quieter hours when the ground sleeps I realize the importance of rest. Thank you for sharing such heartfelt and holy thoughts. My walk with Jesus has been rocky terrain at times, but my faith has never wavered. Listening to your devotionals encourages me to trust in Him, know his love endures and put my life in His hands.
Thank you so much for your words. I really needed to hear them today. It’s been a tough couple of days that came out of nowhere. I will pray to create that “garden” in my heart. God bless you Jess.
To be reminded that the garden is also my place of solice, i know tomorrow's chemo and radiation won't hurt me so badly. I have carried the garden within me for a long time but only now I know why. Thank you for always knowing what to say to help me to stay on track with the lord. He's amazing in his love for us. Peace
Your devotionals are some of my favorite videos. I like that you only do them when called to. It makes them so precious. You have such a gift when it comes to communication. You have a way of really speaking to the heart of people.
I watched this devotional today. Your word about calling His people back to the garden is prophetic for this 2020 Spring/summer season. Look at how through COVID, many of us literally have turned to our gardens. The natural reflected in the Spiritual. Stay blessed 💌
I am 63 years old and you just described my walk with God to a T. Thank you sweet sweet Jess for your beautiful words. May God always bless you through the good and the bad times.
I've learned over the years that God puts us where he wants us... And I know thru all trials thru life that God had a hand on everything driving and holding the wheel thru it all. God knows the long term while we look at the now and the moment... Looking to God for all things and asking for the right path of his will keeps us on the right path. Thank you for letting your light shine.
I’m just like you... I totally get everything you are saying because I’ve said the same things. Through gardening I e seen my faith grow so much stronger because the Father in heaven is teaching through nature. It’s just amazes me so much.
today devo spoke volumes to me... as a gardener myself I can relate soo much to how you live out your faith and use it as an every day reflection of your relationship with God. You are such an inspiration to me!!! Some day I will have a garden full of dancing sun flowers and all the zinnia's and I will smile in the sunshine and give my creator thanks for all of his blessings!!!
May we place God on the throne of our hearts ameen :) May God bless all the prophets including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (in many ways one community) with good ameen.
You helped me out of depression and back on the path i felt so betrayed after i got sick. If i hadnt planted a garden this year i may have given up. So you planted that melon seed in my melon. I even started a channel to hopefully save one persons life like you and gardening did mine. Thank you jess which ryhmes with bless :)
I loved it! Thank you so much for sharing. I myself love to garden. Im married for 33 years to a wonderful woman. I have two great kids. Im a master plumber. But my peace and joy, is my garden. It connects me to my grandparents that teached all about gardening as a child in brooklyn. AnywayI enjoy your TH-cam Videos Love your garden and your devotionals. God Bless Joe
Thank you for sharing your heart and Gods message to me. I read some of the posts before me and I KNOW He walks with us in the gardens of our lives. Be blessed.
Thank you for letting God use you to bless and encourage me and others as we travel on this adventure of life that has so many distractions from what God has for us. Much love and prayers
Thank you so much for this encouragement! It was what I needed to hear today. Yes! I need to put my mind on Christ, and let Him be what governs me in all I do. 🥰
There is a garden inside each of us and it's important to share that garden. I love to share the physical garden as well as the spiritual garden with my grandkids. SO many lessons to be taught outside working and watching the garden. Thank you for inspiring us all!
I love you channel. You are so real. I love my garden and animals. I love you genuine smile. Your whole face says you are so happy. Thank you for all you do.
I thank God for you, that was powerful and spoken with so much heart & soul. At a moment in my life where I'm asking "what's my purpose now, the kids are grown?" The garden is my passion, like Ruth Stout.. it didn't start until my 40s and I'm never going to stop. You are my inspiration, thank you for all you do!
Amen!! this was beautiful, gave me such a peace this morning. Thank you for sharing this absolutely wonderful message about our place in the Kingdom and heart of Jesus! sending you and yours Blessings, and Love xo
You should know how powerful this message is. I have been asking God a question I thought was unanswerable- until now. Thank you for sharing your gift. Bless you too.
I'm not religious on any level but I enjoy your videos and what you have to say so much, I listen to all of them and look forward to these as well as your regular garden videos.
I have to add this. I've always known God is with me in the garden, but today as I delighted in all the beauty there, I realized that he's delighting in me. Talk about overwhelming joy!
Girl...that's prophetic. I just told someone today that I'm tilling the soil of my soul and I'm tilling the soil of my children's hearts. I'm so thankful for this channel
These garden devotionals have been such a blessing to me! I've struggled with fear and ptsd after my daughter fought a brain tumor. By God's grace she is now healed! Thank you Jesus... but everytime her mri check ups come around, fear starts to creep back in! Putting on the full armor of God. Thank you for these. Also a fellow homestead dreamer 🥰
"Your life being all about you is exhausting." Such wisdom in those words.
As you're taking a break, I'm watching this and you are talking about resting!!! So good!! Thank you this is timeless
I come to the garden alone,
While the dew is still on the roses,
And the voice I hear falling on my ear,
The Son of God discloses...
And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
And He tells me I am His own,
And the joy we share as we tarry there,
None other, has ever, known!
This must be pinned Jess ! ❤️✝️👍
Megan Gray I’m a Hospice Chaplain in central AR and this song is one of my patients favorites.
As soon as Jess started the Devotion, This song came to mind!
Chaplain Reece beautiful! Put a tear in my eye today
My Grandmothers favorite song sang at her funeral. I love and sing it it often. Although I am told I cannot carry a tune God knows my heart!
Jess, you dont know this, but you have become a beloved sister to me in the Lord . :)
I'm 61 and in my early 20s was able to spend a year planting (beginner) and reaping and a feeling massively close to God. The deceiver came against me in a big way and I never got to do it again.

Wow, this sure did happen, right?
Infinitely more than we ever could have imagined…
THANK YOU JESS FOR THIS WONDERFUL DEVOTIONAL!
WE TOTALLY AGREE and WHAT MAKES THIS DEVOTIONAL SO SPECIAL IS THAT OUR PASTOR THIS PAST SUNDAY TALKED ABOUT HOW GOD SPOKE INTO EXISTENCE EVERYTHING ELSE but TOOK THE TIME AND KNEELED DOWN AND GATHERED THE DIRT IN HIS HANDS TO FORM MAN - US!!❣❣❣❣❣
Decades ago when I was working in my backyard garden one day, a neighbor was watching for a while. Then said "they who plant a seed and expect it to grow, truly believes in God". I never forgot that.
Wow. Profound 💛
Jess, I too know God answers my questions. I love His Word, it is so rich with answers, prayers, and faith building truths! John 1:1 is true.
Jess..... I don’t think you realize that you’re changing the world ❤️
Yes and amen
Amen Jess thank you for your faithfulness and love of the Lord. Have a blessed day dear, thank you for sharing your heart & faith . I do spend my most delightful time each day in the garden with the Lord😍💖👼
As a Wiccan preistess for over 25 years, i can only express joy in seeing the Children of Abraham returning to put their hands and love back into Mother Earth. Welcome home child. May your Jehovah shower you with blessings.
A beautiful devotional and reminder of who God made us to be. Thank you for sharing what He had put on your heart.
I got the agricultural parable just yesterday... what you sow you reap and God is so good providing for us if we listen to Him
OMG!!!!! Thank you for listening and obeying the voice of God. This devotion video really gave me life. Its exactly why I love my garden. It's all in containers but I feel connected when I grow and sow. Thanks again 🙏❤. I'm listening and watching 🌞
I love the devotionals.. they always bring me so much joy and refreshment!
Not sure if you are familiar with this poem by Robert Frost, but it definitely resonates with what you spoke about ...

With lovely flowers strewn,
But one straight, narrow pathway
That was not overgrown.
And to this beauteous garden
He brought mankind to live,
And said: 'To you, my children,
These lovely flowers I give.
Prune ye my vines and fig trees,
With care my flowerets tend,
But keep the pathway open
Your home is at the end.'
Then came another master,
Who did not love mankind,
And planted on the pathway
Gold flowers for them to find.
And mankind saw the bright flowers,
That, glitt'ring in the sun,
Quite hid the thorns of av'rice
That poison blood and bone;
And far off many wandered,
And when life's night came on,
They still were seeking gold flowers,
Lost, helpless and alone.
O, cease to heed the glamour
That blinds your foolish eyes,
Look upward to the glitter
Of stars in God's clear skies.
Their ways are pure and harmless
And will not lead astray,
Bid aid your erring footsteps
To keep the narrow way.
And when the sun shines brightly
Tend flowers that God has given
And keep the pathway open
That leads you on to heaven.

Amend your mind,amend your soul,and amend your dirt. And they all start with amen,good job.

Love these videos. I’m not a religious person but really love watching your devotional videos
God has given all of us gifts. Thank you so much for sharing yours with all of us.!

Im seeing it as well...people are coming to the garden to feed there families, unbeknownst to them they're about to understand more of God all to soon
I watched this devotional today. Your word about calling His people back to the garden is prophetic for this 2020 Spring/summer season. Look at how through COVID, many of us literally have turned to our gardens. The natural reflected in the Spiritual. Stay blessed 💌
I am 63 years old and you just described my walk with God to a T. Thank you sweet sweet Jess for your beautiful words. May God always bless you through the good and the bad times.
I've learned over the years that God puts us where he wants us... And I know thru all trials thru life that God had a hand on everything driving and holding the wheel thru it all. God knows the long term while we look at the now and the moment... Looking to God for all things and asking for the right path of his will keeps us on the right path. Thank you for letting your light shine.
I’m just like you... I totally get everything you are saying because I’ve said the same things. Through gardening I e seen my faith grow so much stronger because the Father in heaven is teaching through nature. It’s just amazes me so much.
I’m living with that same reality. Thank you Jess so many needed to hear this.
I love you sister thank you for your garden devotionals you bless me.
today devo spoke volumes to me... as a gardener myself I can relate soo much to how you live out your faith and use it as an every day reflection of your relationship with God. You are such an inspiration to me!!! Some day I will have a garden full of dancing sun flowers and all the zinnia's and I will smile in the sunshine and give my creator thanks for all of his blessings!!!
I'm glad you are doing another devotional video. Enjoy them all. Thanks and God Bless
May we place God on the throne of our hearts ameen :) May God bless all the prophets including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (in many ways one community) with good ameen.
You helped me out of depression and back on the path i felt so betrayed after i got sick. If i hadnt planted a garden this year i may have given up.
So you planted that melon seed in my melon. I even started a channel to hopefully save one persons life like you and gardening did mine.
Thank you jess which ryhmes with bless :)
I loved it! Thank you so much for sharing. I myself love to garden. Im married for 33 years to a wonderful woman. I have two great kids. Im a master plumber. But my peace and joy, is my garden. It connects me to my grandparents that teached all about gardening as a child in brooklyn. AnywayI enjoy your TH-cam Videos Love your garden and your devotionals. God Bless Joe
All I can say is that I am so glad I found your channel. Thank you for being you.
Thank you for sharing your heart and Gods message to me. I read some of the posts before me and I KNOW He walks with us in the gardens of our lives. Be blessed.
Thank you for this. I was truly blessed by this devotional.
Thank you for letting God use you to bless and encourage me and others as we travel on this adventure of life that has so many distractions from what God has for us. Much love and prayers
Thank you so much for this encouragement! It was what I needed to hear today. Yes! I need to put my mind on Christ, and let Him be what governs me in all I do. 🥰
wondering if you've seen the Back To Eden film and gardening? His revelations and his guidance from God are glorious
I pray for you and your family daily. God bless you
I'm so glad I wasn't the only kid who talked to God like they were having a conversation. I still do this to this day.
Me too 🤗
Ditto ❤️🤗
Thank you for sharing your devotionals Jess. I always get something from them and they give me comfort! Bless you!
There is a garden inside each of us and it's important to share that garden. I love to share the physical garden as well as the spiritual garden with my grandkids. SO many lessons to be taught outside working and watching the garden. Thank you for inspiring us all!
Thank you for thisI could listen to you speak the gospel everyday. God bless you and your family.
God rested to show us we need rest-
Thanks for sharing
I love you channel. You are so real. I love my garden and animals. I love you genuine smile. Your whole face says you are so happy. Thank you for all you do.
You truly are an incredible human. Thank you for sharing your heart on these devotionals. Best way to start my mornings.
I thank God for you, that was powerful and spoken with so much heart & soul. At a moment in my life where I'm asking "what's my purpose now, the kids are grown?" The garden is my passion, like Ruth Stout.. it didn't start until my 40s and I'm never going to stop. You are my inspiration, thank you for all you do!
Your understanding of the Word is profound and sincere. Thank you for sharing.
Amen!! this was beautiful, gave me such a peace this morning. Thank you for sharing this absolutely wonderful message about our place in the Kingdom and heart of Jesus! sending you and yours Blessings, and Love xo
You should know how powerful this message is. I have been asking God a question I thought was unanswerable- until now. Thank you for sharing your gift. Bless you too.
I'm not religious on any level but I enjoy your videos and what you have to say so much, I listen to all of them and look forward to these as well as your regular garden videos.
