Isn’t it funny how something can look almost dead on the surface — bumpy trunk, spotted and holey leaves, shriveled limbs, knotholes from limbs cut off or shed — then surprise you with new growth?
What you thought had already become is instead continuing its becoming.
We should take a lesson.
Never assume you know the whole story from what you see, not from nature, people, or situations. All we see is what we’re shown and what we’ve experience and imagination enough to decipher.
But God’s plan is so much bigger than our own.
So hold onto your hopes and dreams, but let them breathe and grow.
Let them continue to become.
