The mention of “trees in Florida” usually conjures up images of lanky
palms, wispy pines and endless orange groves. But the Southern Magnolia is a large tree that graces the Sunshine State from
top to bottom. Its bright white flowers bloom for months and fill the air
with a lemony fragrance. The Magnolia’s exotic-looking seedpods open to
reveal dozens of bright red seeds. Each
tiny seed has the potential to populate the entire planet with Magnolias. The
Creator who made the Magnolia made each of us. We too have seeds from the
Father within us that have the potential to impact the world if we will just
open up to His purposes. Blessed Architect of the Universe, help me open fully
to Your will that Your blessed seeds may spread without limits.
“This is the day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24 ESV. The table is set for a brand-new day. Only God knows exactly what is already prepared for my arrival in it. I must now leave behind days gone by and ready myself for new insight, a higher life, and greater things. Am I up for what today will bring? Only the day will tell, but the One who provides it will also carry me through it. One thing is sure; I will walk upon on sacred footprints since the Alpha and Omega has already trod this moment in advance, sprinkling blessings and divine opportunities throughout. I must pay attention so I don’t miss a thing He has placed along the path. Lord God, Lover of My Soul, today is the day You have made; I am so good with that and already rejoicing in what is to unfold. Lift me in Your arms and carry me through with faith, joy, and purpose.
