It’s been several weeks since we’ve had a garden devotional. Today, I’m being very transparent about walking through trials and making the choice to command our soul to bless the Lord.
Bless the Lord, O my soul;
And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
And forget not all His benefits:
Who forgives all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases,
Who redeems your life from destruction,
Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
Psalm 103:1-4

This is YOUR channel. That's not something anyone has the right to tell you how to run what is YOURS. ❤❤❤ A huge thing you do better than most is being true to who you are. Stay authentic Jess. Not sure how I missed this video, but I'm sure with the ever growing subscribers, it will always get mentioned.
Genesis 4:7
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
Malachi 3:16
Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.
Isaiah 45:7
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Revelation 6:8
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Luke 13:3
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Philippians 1:6
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
John 8:32
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

More please, a little late to the party : )
There truly are no words to describe just how deeply your words were felt in my soul. God blessed me today abundantly with your words. Thank you and may God bless your life abundantly everyday.
You are an amazing woman!!! We love you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I just rewatched this video and glad I did. It hit me different this time . ❤️❤️❤️
oh my God Jess .Please oh please don’t separate God from your channel or from your garden to me God is so in the garden I’d love for your friends to make a sticker of that I’d buy them all God is in the garden
Everything you do it according to the Lord
Amen!
I love these ☺️ Thanks Jess!
I just ran across this devotional. I watch your channel "religiously" lol. We have such a parallel of lives. I love to garden, I write poetry, and most of all I love Jesus. Jess I absolutely adore the fact that you understand grace. The 2 devotional videos of yours that I saw tonight just stirred me to turn and chase after my father friend and bride groom. I absolutely needed this and thank you from the deepest part of my heart. I have been hiding from God and have missed him sorely. Thank you for being true to your Roots. Bless you my sister in Christ
Amen amen amen amen amen!!!! Hallelujah!!! ❤️
I love this "language" of blessing the Lord at all times. I had never thought of it in quite this way before, but now I'm more conscious of it, and of choosing to bless Him. <3
Beautiful
Fasting moves the heart of God. It is a discipline that is SO overlooked in today's world! I feel like I have just been to church. Thank you for sharing the word of God. I am in agreement that we need to bless each other. Until next time, "I bless you!"
I'm back over two years later to watch your devotionals again, Jess, because I'm struggling with my relationship with God and The Church. Your leadership is a tremendous help and blessing. Thank you. Love you.
“Well done my good and faithful servant”
I thank God for filling your heart with a message for us.
Love you so much precious Sister! Thank you for being real Jess!
Blessings to you ❤️
It's 10/15/2021 and this devotion still wrecks me every time it pops up. I get something new every time. It BLESSES me so. ❤
Jessica!!!! Oh this blessed me so much!! Thank you for sharing! Ive been watching your channel for a couple years now but don’t often comment. I find myself at times telling my friends that my friend said this or that…. referring to you. We may not meet this side of Heaven but I look forward to meeting you someday my friend. I bless you! Let’s keep our eye looking up because Jesus is coming! ❤️
