Flower petals of ice

 

Flower petals of ice strew the tarmac. Ice clumps in the grass verges. Sun rays tease at the frozen earth, tickling new life into the bulbs lying beneath.

Transition. Winter lingers; spring hesitates.

It’s easier to stick with the present situation rather than step boldly into an unknown future.

Do not be afraid, God counsels. Do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God  is with you wherever you go.

Whatever new season, new situation, new relationship may beckon, as long as I am assured of Jesus walking into it with me, I am ready. Here I am, Lord.
