a Branch

Life can change in an instance

Just that thought alone brings hope

assurance that we can put our faith in

What it looks like right now could look completely different tomorrow

One day your living in a shelter

The next you’re in an apartment of your own

The dream doesn’t look like you planned

You still have some growing to do

But you look back and everything came right in time

Right in its season

The seed you planted

has to grow

The waiting season

Required a lot of waiting

Praying and dependence on the promise

From the Lord

That it won’t always look like this

Can you still trust me while you wait

Will you show up with grace

Can you hold on another day

You don’t have to dig so hard

Tend the soil

Water your faith

With patience and self control

And you will bear much fruit

Surely God is my salvation

I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself is my strength and my defense, he has become my salvation

Isaiah 12:2
