Watching gardeners label their plants
I vow with all beings
to practice the old horticulture
And let plants identify me.

Nature and grace are viewed as flowing together from God. They are both sacred gifts. The gift of nature ... is the gift of "being"; the gift of grace, on the other hand, is the gift of "well-being." Grace is given to reconnect us to our true nature.
