I saw this flower growing out of the asphalt parking lot at Light on the Hill. My mind instantly thought of the saying, “Bloom where you are planted!” I also remembered scripture where Jesus reminds us that He will provide everything we need. We are not to worry but stay focused on the present and live every moment to the fullest! "You are on the path of My choosing. There is no randomness about your life. Here and now comprise the coordinates of your daily life. Most people let their moments slip through their fingers, half-lived. They avoid the present by worrying about the future or longing for a better time or place. They forget that they are creatures who are subject to the limitations of time and space. They forget their Creator, who walks with them only in the present. Every moment is alive with My glorious Presence, to those whose hearts are intimately connected with Mine. As you give yourself more and more to a life of constant communion with Me, you will find that you simply have no time for worry. Thus, you are freed to let My Spirit direct your steps, enabling you to walk along the path of Peace." …from Jesus Calling by Sarah Young From Jane Davis… I am praying for you this morning… Sometimes we can only see inches in front of our vision… And in the distant horizon, everything’s a blur…foggy…hazy. Oh! How we wish we could see it all! Wish we had the answers! Wish things would be easier…wish we didn’t have to trudge through trials. Wish. Wish. Wish. Wishing doesn’t make it so. But TRUSTING in Jesus, Who sees the Big Picture, calms our souls… We don’t have to know our future, because He does. We don’t have to wring our hands with anxiety, because He’s got us. He sees, He hears, and He knows what’s best. Trust Him. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5 “Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own.” Proverbs 3:5 (The Message) Emmaus Gathering at Light on the Hill dining hall on Monday, May 6. Meal at 6pm and worship at 7pm
