Have you ever felt stuck? Sometimes I feel stuck. I can’t make any progress (it feels) in any direction. I have some goals and I start working on one and hit a road block for some reason so I head a different direction only to meet with a different obstacle. A lot of life is like that! It reminds me of the little activity we did at library programs where you can’t go around it, you can’t go under it, etc. You have to go through it! Much of my life has been like that and I believe that God wants me right in the middle of that situation. Most of the time for a reason beyond my grasp God wants me to live through certain situations. For the good or bad of it, I am there right where God wants me. It doesn’t mean I just sit there, I can try to learn the lessons I am supposed to learn from the situation. God loves me and is working something out in my life whether it is a situation or just a work in me. Thank you, Lord!
This is how my “sanity garden” came to be. My children laugh when I tell them to come and see my “sanity garden”. A while back May 26th to be exact, I was feeling stuck. I had to do something. So I planted some seeds in a few pots and in a tiny little space we have at the townhouse. And I mean tiny! Esther and I even made a little planter box out of pieces of pallets. And I have been thrilled. Seeing even my tiny little herbs sprout and grow has given me a joy I would not have had. So if you are feeling stuck, plant a few seeds today.
