New Growth

I was sitting on the deck this morning and noticed that the recent rains had caused some of the seed in one of my bird feeders to sprout. As I enjoyed the scene, it hit me that this is the end of December, firmly in the winter season and here is new new growth right off of my back porch. I realized that there was a profound truth being revealed. The seeds that God has planted in our lives are ready to sprout now. All we have to do is add water. We don’t have to fret because we missed the last growing season or be patient while we wait for the next growing season. We can simply water the seed and start releasing new growth in our lives now!
