Among the several croton plants in our garden, this i sone of them that has drawn my attention recently!
The new shoots in the plant has a greenish tinge which changes int the brownish tinge over two to three weeks. So the plant has a blend of brownish and greenish hue all the time! The sunshine is its source for this change.
This change in colour symbolises growth. When we grow we change!
Yesterday during a medical consultation, one mother told me that she is no more able to be patient and thoughtful as she used to be! She went on to share her traumatic experience in her family life because of which she has become withdrawn!
It is good to take time to pause and reflect as how life events affect our formative journey! There is more fullness and abundance resident within us. Does the environment bring them out to reveal the impact of growth or do we get subdued by our environment to live a reduced life!
We live in the sunshine of God! His presence within us is to make us more colourful and rich! A colleague narrating her painful experiences mentioned to me about new freedom and beyondness she found by trusting her future to God! She lives in the joy of that freshness she discovered in her faith journey!
