Tending the garden of the heart - Day 32
Every plant and tree becomes stronger daily as their roots go deep into the soil. Every ring around a tree tells the age of the tree. The tree's bark acts as its protection. With the roots anchoring the tree, supplying it with water and nutrients and the bark with the hard outer protection, a tree is equipped to handle varying weather conditions.
As humans, we have the resilience to weather many different weather conditions in our lives. Some of these conditions we may have allowed to break us and some have made us stronger. When you remain connected to the Source of Life, you begin to see these conditions as opportunities for growth.
Regardless of what conditions come your way, your assurance comes from the fact that you are connected to God. No matter what, you know that you will come out victorious. The mindset you adopt then, as a tree is secure in its place, so too, is your anchored roots sure. You gain wisdom in handling every situation.
Sometimes your instruction may include resting in your position. By resting, I mean be at peace, all is well. Other times, you're instructed to act, and then you act. Wisdom comes in every situation as you listen to your inner spirit.

Great post Alicia. You're right, God says if any of us lack wisdom, we should ask and He would freely give it to us.
ReplyDeleteI love the imagery of a tree. I have a post that I hope to write next week about a tree as well.
Many blessings to you!
