Good morning.
We face different seasons in our life. At this time of the year we are looking forward to spring. But before spring comes there is winter when much of nature is dormant.
A plant's potential is locked up inside the seed and given the right environment, there will be a great harvest.
Spring releases the amazing potential of nature. Nature comes to life - barren trees become lush and green with new growth. Lawns become green overnight.
As followers of Christ, we too have amazing potential locked up inside of us. "And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you." (Romans 8:11)
Luke says, "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you ..." (Acts 1:8)
The psalmist says, "the righteous will flourish like a palm tree, ... They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green" (Psalms 92:12, 14)
As followers of Christ we should perpetually be living in spring; flourishing and bearing fruit.
Have a good day.
Blessings.
Mike and Daphne.
