New beginnings out of old growth
I took these photos as we entered the new year and got thinking about Isaiah 43: 18-19 “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." What God showed me as I looked at the rose bush was most of last years growth and beauty had been pruned and now lifeless but there is still some beauty carrying over into the new year. I remember the goodness of God. I thank God for the beauty of past seasons, promises answered, goals accomplished, how he has created and formed me so far in my journey and especially for people He has brought into my life who are moving with me into this next season of time💕
