A Utopia Spring
“On this day, I drove down the one-lane entrance to the Links of Utopia that had become so familiar this life-altering week. It was a “windows down” sort of road. You wanted to experience it, not just drive it. This stretch of road was flanked by the authenticity of life. Nothing was imported. Without the help of a gardener, native wildflowers bloomed in concert with the natural grasses and vines. Sensing their short-lived splendor, wildflowers sprang to life with a flurry and lived life greatly during the spring, knowing the slower-growing summer grasses would survive them in the coming heat. Cattle stared you down with curiosity while chewing their cud, oblivious to the world outside of their fence. The century-old rusted barbed-wire fence served its purpose faithfully, held together by the stoic rot-proof cedar posts born in the valley. Obsessed by failure earlier in the week, I had been too preoccupied to experience life beyond the surface, missing what Monet lived to paint.”
Spring is here. Its Masters week. Hope is in the air. Be looking for what Monet lived to paint. It’s there…
"Let this hope burst forth within you, releasing a continual joy. Don’t give up in a time of trouble, but commune with God at all times."
- Romans 12:12 TPT
