IN THE WAITING

Insta Diaries #7

It was like 85 degrees yesterday or something like that. I installed the AC’s and the sound of lawn mowers are regular these days. Summer is basically here. Spring kind of got glossed over. Which is kind of a bummer. 

See the loveliest part of spring is the new growth. Seeing buds burst into bloom and green appear on leaves. It’s so wonderful and new. 

That newness of changing seasons is something I’ve been feeling lately in my heart. God is bringing me into new things. New adventures. New challenges. New fruit. 

But sometimes frosts come in Spring and the new life that had been growing is stifled by unforgiving cold. 

Life can feel like that sometimes for me. I’ll feel new things coming and God working and then something happens and it feels like a frost has come. And all progress is stopped. 

Here’s the thing though: that’s not true. While it might feel like that. God is faithfully still working in my life and making all things new. 

So if you feel like that - join me in taking hope. Know that God is working even when we feel like He isn’t. He is faithful and His love endures forever. Spring is here. He’s making things new and soon it’s going to be glorious, free, delightful summer! :)
