"See, I am doing something new! Now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?" (Is 43:19)
As I spent substantial time this morning putting up today's post and pictures, I casually wondered how I came across the blog tag line above from Isaiah...well, watching the Sunday evening PBS show 30 Good Minutes--a repeat, I think I know how. I must have seen this episode/show back in the spring and liked it's message...if that's not how it came to be, then it just fits. The guest speaker spoke of this exact scripture reading...WOW! It spoke of hope and His way to give us what we need when we need it...this all blends well with my new efforts of gardening this year. I truly have ratcheted up the gardening bug in me...planting new things in new places and transplanting plants in new spots...do you not perceive it--are you not aware...this show got me good. They spoke of "suffering and hope..." --'How do you think, though, the promise in Isaiah speaks to families whose child has died or to someone who has lost a spouse or a loved one? How do those words speak to someone who is at the bottom, where they really believe that their worst possible reality has come to be?'-WOW...it all comes together in just 30 good minutes today! Thank you Lord for giving me the gift of Awareness and providing the hope along with providing me with what I need along my spiritual journey.
