There's a better story yet to be unfolded in my life.
I am continually amazed at what God reveals to me about myself.
I really don't know where to begin, but that's alright.
Just like a seeded flower, it needs proper soil and warmth from the sun to grow. It needs water.
Christ is my well.
Over time, the flower starts to sprout. It is growing into what it needs to be.
God protects it from the harsh realities.
And then, you see something so amazing.
The flower, once a young seedling, begins to bud.
The bud slowly peeks out its petals.
It is a waking bloom.
Slowly, but surely, the petals start to show more and more.
The fragrance permeates, it is open to radiate its beauty.
Exactly what it was created for.
It is beautiful.
It was made beautiful in its time.
In time.... All good things come from the Lord.
I may not understand it, or know how it works or why.
But...
Something broke wide open, and spilled out.
Something changed.
And I'm renewed.
I am beautiful.
And God is showing me something I have been waiting for.
It will take time, patience, trust, & hope.
It might not be right, but I will not worry.
He has opened my eyes to something new.
And I am happy.
Truly.
If this is what I have been waiting for....
It will be worth the wait.
