Seeing Potential
Alistair shares from Luke 13:1-9 as part of KNEC Church Online
www.knec4jesus.org.uk
On my kitchen window
sits an orchid plant.
Its flowers have long dropped.
It is not the prettiest of things
without its magnificent yet delicate flowers.
What do I do with it now?
It looks like a twig in a pot
with a few leaves hinting at life.
Ach, it really is an ugly thing.
Who wants to look at that?
And yet with so little effort on my part, a little water now and again,
(and I mean now and again)
I start to see some buds appear.
A bit more time then.
And my is it worth the wait!
Those flowerheads are triumphant!
What if I had just given up?
What if that twig had landed in the compost bin?
What if, at my lowest moment, people gave up on me?
(Spill the Beans, 42)
