Renewal


Below is a picture of the daffodils bulbs 
that I planted last year.

During my winter clean-up,
 I forgot that they were under the dirt.
So, I put a potted plant on top of the dirt,
 for a winter decoration.

I discovered the struggling plant 
when I removed the pot a few weeks ago.
To my surprise this struggling daffodil came up,
 pale in color and all bunched up.

With sunshine and encouragement, 
it is now green and growing!  


 I have felt the same way as this bulb.
Hidden by some burden that clouds me.
I struggled to bloom and then... the burden is lifted.
I now can stand up straight, knowing what my focus is and can bloom!

This is the season for renewal.
Seize this time to remove your burdens, grow and bloom.

God is waiting to hear from you.
Pray, repent and read.
You'll see the results.

  3. A very nice analogy, Chris.
    Yes, God does renew us - in my case I need a complete rebuild - will have to wait for that lol.

    What a difference in the case of the daffodil.
