I appreciated your meditation on the apple tree. The Lord speaks to me through the seasons and the different jobs that come with the change of season. ” In the bulb, there is a flower..in the seed, an apple tree………unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.” What a message of HOPE. Thanks.

I loved this Luke. Your Dad would be so proud of you that you are cultivating apple trees. Even more than that he and your mother would be so pleased with your work and thinking. Keep up your good work!

Lois and Dawn, see the Nov. 21 entry for an explanation. There are typically four texts per week, so the Monday devotional is an introduction to the rest of the week. To see the four texts for this week, go to http://www.textweek.com.

Yes, dear friend, we shall rise again, we and our children. And we shall bud forth flowers that will turn to fruit for the good of or fellow creatures, especially those who are distressed and hungry. Thank you for the encouraging thought.

Luke, your hope-filled meditation was just what I needed on a dark, rainy, and windy Monday morning. Thank you for your beautiful words, and for the reminder that my often-impatient time is not God’s time. I know that I will return to this meditation often.
