A Small Beginning

A Small Beginning

When you see a tiny rosebud on a bush after the winter, it is an exciting event because you will know that before long, there will be many beautiful flowers that will bloom and bring its beauty and fragrance to the world. It is the same with you and your circumstances, my child.
You may be discouraged that you only see tiny buds, and are impatient for the flowers to come, but remember to enjoy the process. This journey is not to be rushed, but to be savored and experienced fully. There is great beauty in each and every stage that a bud has to go through to fully bloom, and each phase is beautiful and carries its own blessing.
So, do not despise the small beginnings, but rejoice in the expectation of blessing and beautiful things to come. Every single bud has the potential to bloom, so nurture and enjoy each and every opportunity that comes your way. Expect and anticipate the wonderful things that have been growing and forming in the quiet of winter to come to bloom in the right season and right time. Amen.
