* Adsum *
What if the miracle of living this life is not that we all get our way but that we sink our roots and souls and bodies deeper and deeper into the place God has put us, for just the time God has put us there? This place is not even a physical place – remember, there is no moral good or evil to leaving or staying – but simply the space we inhabit today. Adsum. What if the miracle of life is that we move through belief and unbelief, doubt and faith, joy and sorrow, anger and grief, truth and faith, being as wholly ourselves as we can be in that moment. Is being here, wherever here is, wholeness?
I think it is.
from The Understory by Lore Ferguson Wilbert, p. 205
* Adsum is Latin for “I am here”

Bloom where you’re planted
Continually ever-present
Yield as sacrifice
