Sometimes it’s good to remember that good things come from difficult, or bad times.  Just look at how flowers grow out of dirt.  All the dead matter, the organic waste, the decayed previous living plants all form soil, then it only takes a little seed to grow a magnificent, living, new flower.

We’re like flowers, plants and vegetables, too – we develop from tiny eggs and seeds – made of dust and soil – all the recycled atoms recombining in a magnificent God-created crescendo of human life anew.

All new things come from old.   Change and life-anew surges forward in a magnificent and sacred symphony of grace.

Remember from where you came, when you’re in the dirt and times are tough.  Let your new life spring forth anew, from the old.
