When I left for cabinet meeting just one week ago, there was no bloom, blossom or sign of life on this forsythia bush in my front yard. Noticing that I have seen forsythia blooming around town, I wondered if my bush of nothing-but-brown-stems had died during the winter.When I came home, the brown stems were full of spring blossoms. For my forsythia bush, as with people and situations, there was more going on than the eye could see.
Each day I see these yellow blooms, I am thankful for God's life-giving power beyond what we can see...and pray for grace to trust more deeply.
