Water is the lifeblood of the garden, just as water, through baptism, is the lifeblood of the gardener. In us, just as in the garden, water is also a cleansing, washing off the dirt and the grime. When a plant’s leaves are washed clean by the rain, it’s pores are able to breath again, to photosynthesize (process light) just as our own baptism washes us clean that we may process the everlasting light that comes with salvation through the Grace of the Master Gardener.
