Secret Hiding Places

I’ve been in a hard place all week.

It seems like everything is about to change, and yet nothing is changing.

It’s always hard to both wait and progress, all at the same time.

Some days I am thankful for secret hiding places in the woods.

Here, everything is still, yet everything is changing.

Much like me.

Faith is a constant decision.

It cannot be based on how quickly things happen or when.

It’s all about finding the balance between never accepting mediocrity while being at peace with the Lord’s timing.

I can’t think of a better place to learn that than in my home in the woods.

Everyone should have a safe retreat, a place to go and choose faith again and again.

A place where wild things are allowed to grow and be.
