Psalm 27:14 (NKJV) 14 Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!
I was looking out my window this morning. I looked past the bare, naked trees, only to feast my eyes on the beautiful blue sky. My heart was thankful for the pretty, sunny day we were having.
As I looked down again, and saw the nakedness of the trees, it almost changed my mood, causing me to think negatively.
But God showed me at that moment, that even though the trees look dead on the outside, what is really going on inside. They are fully alive, they are living and growing. They are being prepared to produce! They will soon be putting forth blossoms and beautiful leaves, making an even prettier picture.
You see, we sometimes forget that there is preparation time for a lot of things, before we get to see the actual beauty of it. Just because things may not look beautiful on the outside, it doesn’t mean that in their season or time they will not produce much beauty.
Be patient and wait. Don’t let the outward appearance of a situation cause us to start feeling negative and overlooking all the good that is taking place.
Be blessed. We love you all and our prayers are with you today!
