Day 31 of the journey
Buds on Bare Wood
Today's stop rests on Job 14:9. It takes about a minute.
“At the scent of water it will bud and put forth shoots like a plant.”
Job 14:9
The reflection
A stump can smell water. Hope does not need much evidence to begin again.
One step forward
Sit with this one line for a minute before you move.
A short prayer
Lord, you said it and I want to believe it. Where I can't yet, hold me anyway. Let these words go with me into the rest of today. Amen.
