A TREE OF LIFE: Planted for the display of His splendor

This is a word of hope and encouragement for us today. I pray you will grab hold of it and be blessed. Five years ago I painted this tree titled “Tree of Life.” It was a symbol of hope for me during a difficult and dark season. A ferocious storm had suddenly swept into my life. However, the Lord spoke to me before it hit and prepared my heart. He gave me instructions on what to do in the midst of it so that I could get through it, and not just get through it— flourish.

My feelings will break my own heart and crush my spirit as waves crashing upon the rock. My feelings will cause me to sink into the sand of despondency; a place of

RUNNERS AT YOUR MARK!

{As for us, we have all of these great witnesses who encircle us like clouds. So we must let go of every wound that has pierced us and the sin we so easily fall into. Then we will be able to run life’s marathon race with passion and determination, for the path has been already marked out before us.
