This month marks 3 years in our new, beautiful home. So grateful God chose this home for us — a sacred place filled with nature, peace and calm. My sanctuary.
I've always been drawn to olive trees and their beautiful gray-green, silvery leaves. The olive tree is a symbol of peace, restoration and friendship. Last year, I was overjoyed to plant one in our front yard. I thought it was a fruitless olive tree so I was very surprised to see some budding green olives on the branches this summer. God always has abundant surprises in store for us and these olives are a reminder to thrive and be fruitful.
But I am like an olive tree,
thriving in the house of God.
I will always trust in God’s unfailing love.
I will praise you forever, O God,
for what you have done.
I will trust in Your good name
in the presence of Your faithful people.
Psalm 52:8-9
"Olive trees thrive in difficult climates because of their strong root system. Similarly, when we are rooted in God we can flourish during the most challenging times."
