You never know when or where you will get inspired. I had just finished with an exhausting but great Rogue event. And I am in a restroom in this great little coffee house in Estes Park,Colorado, last spring. It is a pretty cool restroom because it is just a few steps from the river. Anyway…
Inside the restroom, there is this picture of this great looking tree, and below it are these words:
Stand tall and proud
Sink your roots deep into the earth
Be content with your natural beauty
Go out on a limb
Drink plenty of water
Remember your roots
Enjoy the view
Those are some pretty good words to live by. Actually they have my mind racing as I think about them again today. As I think about what it means to plant my roots deep, Jeremiah 17 comes to mind. I think that will be an important passage for the weeks ahead. At some point, I just might have to write some about each of those thoughts.
For now I think I will keep looking for inspiration around every corner. You never know where it will come from.
