Thriving on the Rocky Crag

On a windswept rocky crag a lone tree thrives. It's not by its might or by its power, for it doesn't not direct the wind or rain. It's not by its will, for its placement is divine.

We do not pick our place in time.

We do not chose our relatives.

We do not chose our gifts or talents.

But we can chose what to do with all of these.

We live now.

We love now.

We serve now.

Tomorrow may be too late. Will you thrive by giving yourself away? Jesus did.
