Confused Cactus
December 28th, 2009. Filed under: Monday's Musings. 
Once again I decided to stick my cactus plant outdoors. I figured God could do a better job with it than I was. It was looking pitiful a couple months ago when I put it out.
I went through this last year. That’s when I figured out that my plant had a desire to be a New Year’s cactus instead of Thanksgiving or Christmas. So today, I remembered to go out back and check on it.
That little sucker has 25 buds on it. It looks as if it’ll be in full bloom by New Year’s Day. It’s larger and healther than last year. Once again it reminds me of why we should be blooming as we go into a new year.
God’s in control. He makes our life beautiful – even when others give up on us. It will soon be 2010, and it’s time to begin. Let’s just jump into this new year and let God give beauty to our lives.
