A Fruitful Future

by | Oct 13, 2023 | Encouragement

During my recovery, I’ve been walking at a local park. It started with me topping out at a leisurely 1.2 miles followed by a necessary nap. Now I’m at a speed-walked 2 miles almost every day and still building. It has been incredibly therapeutic. Every day during my walk I see this path. The path meanders along in an open area, then goes around a blind corner. It reminds me of the meandering paths and blind corners that we navigate in life. As our paths approach each blind corner, we have a choice to make. Do we risk the unknown? Do we trust God to lead us where we can’t see? This particular path happens to open to a beautiful stream and wooden bridge surrounded by colorful foliage (it’s Fall here in Michigan!). It’s encouraging. It’s a representation of the fruitful future God has in store for us. I’m so grateful for His plans and thankful for His purposes!
