There’s a charming artisan village,
Nestled in the valley of northwestern Maryland.
It consists of a restaurant, museum and shops.
It celebrates both the Amish and Mennonite heritages;
And also on the lovely grounds is this bridge.
We were here at just the right time,
For me to capture this reflection.
I love how it forms a full circle, in repose.
To me, this illustrates a perfect analogy,
Of God’s power,
In His Word,
In all of creation (light, seasons, the changing landscape, etc.),
In the work of His Spirit within us,
To make whole or complete anything that’s within His Will.
Dear Lord, I am trusting everything to Your divine care and keeping. For just as Your creation, (light) can reflect the lines of a bridge to form a perfect circle, I know You’re at work in every detail of my life—refining, changing, and teaching me—to emulate Your decrees and ways. And oh, how I long to reflect Your likeness, more clearly, each and every day. Amen.
Here are a few places from Scripture that assure us that He’s looking for us to walk in His steps: Ephesians 5:1-2, 1 Corinthians 11:1, 1 John 2:6, Matthew 22:37-40, 1 Peter 2:21, 2 Corinthians 3:18, John 13:34-35, John 10:17, Ephesians 2:10
