God gives us exactly what we need for the task He has placed before us. When we say, “I am only [fill-in-the-blank],” we are looking at what’s in front of us. But we often forget that while we can’t always see the full picture, God can.

While there may not be anything wrong with wanting to be seen for the right reasons and make an impact on this world, I encourage you to always remember that you are already seen, cherished, and treasured by the Eternal King. And that truth is forever.

How can we make God our refuge, shield, shelter, and safe place? Most of us probably recognize He’s with us always. As Psalm 139 proclaims, there’s no way we can flee His presence, no place we can go where He isn’t already there.

Don’t let the fear of the “far side of the sea” keep you stuck on the shore. The dawn is rising, and God is already there, waiting to guide you on a new adventure that will bless you!

Just like Mary, we can rest in the truth that death does not win, loss is not permanent, and God grows new life where we least expect it. The same God who planted both gardens is still tending our story today.

Easter is not simply another holiday on the calendar. It is the celebration of the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord. Through Him, we have received forgiveness, redemption, and victory over the grave.
