TAKE FIVE | Mini-Retreat - Create A Clearing

Our life can be represented like a forest. The trees represent all of the people and needs in our lives with the soil, sun, and water representing the necessary ingredients of life that we receive through our faith. However an often overlooked need of a tree is space. A tree can survive with limited space, however if the tree has space to thrive, then its roots can grow deep into the soil and soak up all of the water as well as reach for the sun with all of its branches. Just like the trees we will thrive rather than just survive is we cultivate space in our life to grow in our faith walk.
