The beauty remains! At Beech Springs, Snow-On-The-Mountain thrives abundantly. Is elegant yellow blooms carpet the landscape every spring, lasting from early May to mid-June. Though the blossoms fade, the plants remain adorned with green foliage veined with contrasting white splotches, offering year-round beauty from winter through spring.
Think about it. As youth's bloom fades and age brings aches, does beauty vanish? No. Like Snow-On-The-Mountain, beauty endures beyond youth's blossom.
God’s Word tells us: “Night pierces my bones; my gnawing pains never rest. In his great power God becomes like clothing to me” (Job 30:17).
Pain isn't eternal nor inherently good. In time it fades, and we'll bask in the eternal beauty of the Lord. Amid suffering, find solace in drawing near to Him. Youth's bloom may vanish, but enduring beauty lies in the steadfastness of our faith, akin to the ground cover at Beech Springs. This beauty transcends life's seasons, offering solace regardless of age or infirmity.
We pray. “Heavenly Father, Amid pain and aging, we seek Your eternal comfort. Draw us close, granting solace in Your presence. Though youth fades, may we find beauty in faith's steadfastness. Your love endures through life's seasons. Guide us to trust in Your promise of eternal beauty. In Jesus' name, Amen. pray.” Amen.”
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34)
