I’m working hard to clear up the murky water in my little fish pond
out in the back garden. I pulled out the old pump, purchased a new pump/UV
light combo unit a few days ago, installed it and now I’m just waiting for the
magic to happen. I can’t wait to actually be able to see the 9 fish I've been
feeding.
I love the thought of adding
light to a dark and murky situation to bring clarity. And I love how both light
and dark cannot reside together. It may take lots of time and patience, but
in the end, the strength of the light is the stronger of the two…and always
wins.

I’ve noticed that all my watering has encouraged the weeds to grow
as well as my roses. I've developed quite the weedy mess out there that’s going
to take a few days of back-breaking work with the hula-hoe, lots of iced tea
breaks and many hours on my knees.
Funny how when we’re looking
for real results in life, it takes dedicated effort and some time spent on our
knees….

I can’t get that picture out of my head, the one I believe God put there a few
weeks ago. It’s a calm, serene body of water with several stepping stones leading
from one side to the other. They’re randomly spaced; some jagged, some smooth
and slick. Surely, the trek from one side to the other would be an unsure,
treacherous journey.
Yet, not far away from those
stepping stones is a stable and secure bridge.
It brings to mind how I often
hop across the stepping stones in life; unsure about my footing or which to
take next…and all the while…God offers the bridge. His way is secure. His way
is safe. He is faithful to bridge the waters from my hopes and dreams to His
purpose for me.
The bridge or the stepping
stones.
It’s a daily choice.
Be blessed and have an awesome
day!
