Each season of life brings it's own discoveries, beauties, wonders and promises just waiting to be birthed anew.

To each season there is a plan and purpose.

Just think, if you had only seen a apple tree in the winter season. You might just think that it was always going to be bent, snarled and barren.

If you view it in the spring, you would see it in a whole new light, when the blooms are beautiful and full of promise. 

Yet, as beautiful and sweet as it is in spring, what if you had missed the beauty of it's summer shade or it's brilliant colors of the fall—when it was at the peak of fruitfulness?

If so, you would have missed it's purpose for all that went before and all that will follow after—the peak of life and the seeds of promise it holds within. The hope of things to be. 

Your life also holds promises of things you have never even dreamed of before.

You are breaking free from the captivity of the past. Before you is the freedom to dream the dreams you have hidden away for so long.

Before you is a new chapter. Embrace it with anticipation and excitement as new promises within begin to reach their full potential.

Take time during this season to remember the accomplishments, milestones and blessings of 2017.

Yes, you can. "The best is yet to be."

 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
