A Glimmer of Hope

A chaplain I connected really well with while I was visiting the bushfire zone in Victoria contacted me today via email with the following comments:

We had more rain this morning, which'll help to ease some of the anxiety in the areas we were in recently. Mary and I walked up near Kinglake on Tuesday - the area is one of our favourite bushwalking haunts... and amongst the black and devastation, there are blades of grass emerging... and tiny bush violets that somehow survived... and wattles that are beginning to sprout from seed... what an amazing capacity the creation has for regeneration!!

Thanks Randall.

Shalom
