There is something almost miraculous about how God, the maker of the universe, whispers to the trees and the flowers and causes them to bloom in a flurry. Just last week, snow was cascading from the sky, the world around dark and gloomy, with spring feeling so far away. And yet, God knew, in His perfect timing, that just days later He would awaken the world in the way that He does when the sun shines and the birds chirp and the flowers bloom. What a wonderful reminder that God is in control of all and He knows the perfect timing for everything to make any situation far more beautiful than one could imagine. I'll admit, I was quite anxious about finishing school, because I was worried I would have too much free time where my negative thoughts would take charge and I would feel lonelier and more depressed than ever without school constantly occupying my mind. But, I am thankful for this new season that God is bringing about in my life - a season where He is teaching me to rest in His promises, and grow in Him until He gives the command to bloom and be ready for whatever the next season in my life will bring. And with a neighborhood as beautiful and cheery as mine, how on earth could I not be thankful to have time to sit outside and soak it all in and not worry about homework?! My friends, whatever your worries are, and whatever season you may be in, be reminded that God knows just when we are ready to bloom and when that time comes, I am positive we will be rejoicing in the beautiful plans He has in store!
