COVENANT, CURRENT & COURAGE
The air is crisp but softer today.
Not the biting cold of last week — just enough to make the steam rise gently from my coffee as I sit wrapped in a light blanket on the wooden rocking chair outside.
The snow is slowly melting.
You can see it retreating from the edges of the yard, sliding back into the earth as if winter itself knows it’s time to loosen its grip.
The koi pond is moving again.
The waterfall is steady.
That soft, continuous sound — water over stone — reminds me that life keeps flowing even when everything looks frozen.
On the small table beside me rests my Bible, my pen, and my notepad.
My Morning Covenant is open in front of me.
I’ve been tightening it up lately.
Refining the words.
Making sure they reflect not just who I am — but who I am becoming.
Because covenant isn’t casual.
It’s intentional.
And as I rock gently back and forth, I find myself dreaming again.
About living on a cruise ship one day.
About waking up to open water instead of snow.
About designing a life that feels free, spacious, purposeful.
And I smile because dreaming at this stage of life feels brave.
There was a time when survival was the dream.
Now, alignment is.
Peace is.
Purpose is.
Provision is.
I think about how far I’ve come.
How many seasons have melted away.
How many versions of me have existed before this one.
And I realize something as I watch the snow disappear into the soil —
Nothing leaves without making room for something new.
Even retirement.
Even reinvention.
Even the idea of home.
The waterfall keeps flowing.
The covenant keeps strengthening.
And I keep showing up.
TODAY’S REFLECTION
What you are refining today may be preparing you for a freedom you haven’t fully stepped into yet.
PRAYER
God,
Thank You for seasons that soften.Thank You for dreams that do not expire with age. As I refine my covenant with You, refine my vision. Align my desires with Your design. Help me build a life rooted in faith, courage, and consistency — whether on solid ground or sailing open seas. Remind me that provision follows obedience, and peace follows trust.
Amen. 🙏
Until tomorrow, may your dreams feel possible, your covenant feel steady, and your heart feel anchored — wherever you are.
With love,
Grandma Grady 💛
