I have been caught in a whirlwind of friends, family, bible study, painting the treehouse, and reading some great Christian non-fiction. It has been quite busy, but very fun and fulfilling.
One of my favorite activities in the summer is walking in the forest. During one of these walks a few months ago, I came across a completed treehouse right in the middle of the woods, just a few minutes off the path. This treehouse became my little sanctuary, a place to sit and enjoy God's presence, do devotions, and sing worship songs. Unfortunately, a group of teenagers vandalized the treehouse around June, which greatly discouraged me from going there again.
Fortunately, God is good and He provides a way! I decided to get together with a few of my friends and paint the treehouse, covering up the obscure images and words. The treehouse is now covered in Bible verses, flowers, butterflies, and other various decorations.
I couldn't be happier about "my treehouse." I try and visit it daily, making sure to thank God for His goodness. The treehouse is just an example of how God can turn any bad situation to good if we only listen and follow Him.
