It's only February and the redbuds are trying to bloom! It's not their time! A few days of warmer weather and all of creation begins to ready itself for Spring. God reminded me of how often I try to bloom a lot of times before His timing. God has a purpose and a plan for all seasons, and in order for things to bloom and be fruitful, they have to go according to His timetable. Chances are these beautiful blooms will be zapped by frost, but fear not, God can bring beauty out of all circumstances.
"But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind." Job 12:7-10

It's Not Time
It's only February and the redbuds are trying to bloom! It's not their time! A few days of warmer weather and all of creation begins to ready itself for Spring. God reminded me of how often I try to bloom a lot of times before His timing. God has a purpose and a plan for all seasons, and in order for things to bloom and be fruitful, they have to go according to His timetable. Chances are these beautiful blooms will be zapped by frost, but fear not, God can bring beauty out of all circumstances.
