A Series from the Psalms
I welcome the crisp, bold air of the morning.
I pause to honor the ancient wisdom I feel in my bones.
I will seize the day with confidence and grace.
Fun Fact: Magnolias are among the oldest flowering plants on earth, predating bees. Early magnolias were pollinated by beetles, which is why their petals are thick and strong — built to endure, kind of like a Mack truck.
Magnolias.
Ancient, regal, full of grace.
They stand firm through each season,
as if to pass on the love of God,
like a spark that starts a fire.
Petals thick.
Gentle and resilient.
Open wide.
To greet the world again and again.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and He helps me.
—Psalm 28:7
Magnolias mirror our souls. Like their petals that bloom in spring, we rise to face a new day,
with a new sense of courage,
with a new sense of strength,
with a new sense of confidence,
in a way that feels ancient and true.
May you stand tall and bold.
May you extend grace in every season.
May you trust the ancient love as the magnolia does.
