Here's the other side of my giant succulent that I dubbed Matilda (see previous post). This cat who I call kitty (because she has a twin and I cannot remember what my kids named them) takes naps in some crazy places!

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could sleep so peacefully in precarious positions? Wouldn't it be wonderful if we learned to rest in God's peace no matter where we find ourselves?

Let's pick resting over fretting today. Join me?

Meet my giant succulent (I call her Matilda). She grew and grew despite the heat, the rain, and my sporadic attention.

I sat next to her the other morning to enjoy the "just right" temperatures, wind speed, and smell (we grow bacon 😉). I looked at her and prayed, "Lord, cause me to grow no matter the circumstances, storms, or conditions I find myself in. Let my roots be planted deep in you."

Perfect circumstances don't exist, but our perfect God does. And he says that he will finish what he's started (Philippians 1:6). I'm gonna bank on that, how about you? Link arms with me? Let me know in the comments.

Do you ever forget these things? I do. More often than I care to admit. But God is so faithful to remind me (again). He uses his Word, music, and words of encouragement from others.

So, friend, I'm here to tell you this same truth:

You are seen even if you feel invisible.
You are heard even if it feels your voice goes unnoticed.
You are loved even if you hold yourself apart out of self-protection.
You are redeemed even if your regrets loom large and whisper, "Not you."
You are forgiven even if you feel you don't deserve it.
You are chosen even if you haven't been "picked".
You are accepted even if you walk alone.

Which truth do you need to hold close to your heart today?

Will you join me?

The bench and water beckons me to sit a while and share stories, hearts, and hope.

The rays of sun remind me that God wants to pierce our lives with his illuminating truth. To bring light to darkness, hope to doubt, and courage to trust him.

What if we sat a while with him in our confusion and pain instead of scurrying past it? What might you discover?
