Is it a squash? Is it a cucumber? Is it a squashcumber! Ding,ding, ding! We have a winner! 

I know. I’ve done my research. I’m aware that every expert out there says this can’t happen. It’s totally okay to plant squash beside cucumbers because they can absolutely unequivocally under no circumstances cross pollinate.

Except they did here on the banks of Lake Providence.

Feel free to spend the rest of the evening googling the experts. Just don’t send me any of the links. Why? Because I have a garden of squashcumbers. Because my garden is producing what they say can’t exist. 

The whole impossible thing reminds me of a much greater mystery. Believers walking this earth with the God Man who was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, took that perfection to the Cross, paid for the sins of the world, walked out of the grave, and into the hearts of all who would believe. I remember writing about the other worldly mystery of it all in Devotions for the Hungry Heart, but I’ll summarize it here…

Debating Christ’s Presence in our lives with skeptics is like a bird trying to prove to an earth bound animal that it can fly while they’re both sitting on the ground. The most compelling proof is for the bird to simply take off and fly. 

I hope you fly.
