It didn't take long. It wasn't difficult. Today I pruned some rose bushes and plants. I had planned to do this for awhile but winter weather and rainy days didn't cooperate. It bothered me to see the withered, broken branches for I realize that pruning them now will help them grow stronger later. I began thinking...
My life can sure use some pruning, too. Some areas need to be removed and discarded. Some areas need to be redirected. Some areas need to be given extra focus to encourage improved health. Yet much too often, I am too busy to do what I should.
Yet there is hope. Bare trees and shrubs may look insignificant now yet spring will soon bring blooms, leaves and beauty into full, glorious splendor. Thankfully, God can take the bareness of my life and transform it with His love, Presence and power. What has been surrendered can also bring significance. I am grateful for His amazing grace and mercy.<3~thl
