Everyone has their happy place. This is the place where they can just go and catch their breath. A place where they can do whatever thinking that needs to be done without the distraction of everyday life. This beautiful little spot is my happy place. My "thinking tree".
Back in November I went through some things. The decisions I had made left me wondering why my life was such a mess? It had me questioning my ability to make smart choices and the power of forgiveness from a loving God. This is the place where I spend hours just sitting, writing, praying, and thinking about the messes I had made. It's such a small thing really, this little "thinking place". God really used it in my life though. This was where I realized the destructive behavior I had been involved in and the place where I made the decision to stop. The place where I realized that no matter what I do I will never be outside the grace of God. This is my beautiful little thinking place. My very own giving tree. It provided me shade, a place to sit, and a place to think and pray. The only things I needed at the time I needed them most. My very own giving tree.
