Recently someone shared with me this picture they felt like the Lord had given them for me!
I see you being stood on the edge of a wood and all the leaves are still on the trees so you can’t see through the wood but Autumn is coming and that’s when
leaves fall off. With this change in
season you will be able to see more clearly what's on the other side of the
wood.
When I heard it I thought, Yep that's right where I am at.
This past week I attended a conference in Durham and CONFESSION - I skipped out on the small group session I was to attend and took a bit of an afternoon stroll :) and look at the view I stumbled upon! I was instantly reminded of the "word" my friend had given me!
In that moment I was able to STOP and remind myself that God is good and oh so very faithful. This season I am in will come to end and God will have new and amazing things for me. But my main reflection in it all was this...
I don't want to miss out on any of the beauty, good, love, joy, and peace that the Lord has for me right NOW. I am an apostle which means I am usually always thinking about the future, and what could be. But I don't want to live in a future that isn't promised, but would rather live in the present that's right in front of me. So doing my best to do just that!
All to say, I am really thankful I didn't go to my small group time!
And here are some more lovely views from the bridge that I got to enjoy!
Maybe my favorite view. This was great to witness!
