It is in times of need that our eyes are opened to the wonderful things that are around us. God will not take you through a fire without something good on the other side. The key is being aware and having our eyes and heart open to what that good thing is.
Often we are focused on the tragedy or negative situation…the fire…and we aren’t even open to the possibility of the bright point on the other side.
Have you ever noticed that after the devastating effects of a forest fire when everything is charred and black…look closely and you will see new growth. Fresh blades of green grass that pop up once some of the debris is burned away. Every once in a while a wildflower will pop up…beauty arises out of tragedy. It isn’t always clearly visible at first, but when you see the simple beauty against the reminder of the tragedy, there is hope.
When things look there worst, open your eyes…open your heart…I truly believe there is a blessing waiting for you. I have seen this in my life…
