Tree In Winter Photo by Petr Kratochvil I really don't know why, but I have a fascination with trees. While driving to my son Matthew's game today in Albertville I was looking out at the trees devoid of all leaves I had a simple thought - Shouldn't I be something like this tree?
Tree in Winter by Jennifer Jensen
Rooted firmly,
In the Truth and
In my most vulnerable state -
Totally humble.
Trusting,
That the One
Who gives life will
Bring a change.
Waiting patiently,
Without doubt or fear
For a Spring
And Everlasting Life.
Knowing,
This Life exists now
But only in part
And as a Shadow.
Hoping,
In a True Hope,
Yet living
With this longing.
Anticipating,
A Brighter Sun
That brings
A Glorious Day.

Sorry, I don't look at my blog very often. We had a great, if busy, Christmas.
Yesterday was a blast for the boys and I am taking some time to read Confessions by Augustine because of the snow day.
I hope you are doing well. Where are you now?
Very nice. I like it a lot. Thanks for sharing...Brandi
