Monday, March 31, 2025 — You Are Not Behind – A Spring Renewal Devotional
Week’s Theme (March 31-April 4, 2025): Spring Renewal: Letting Go, Letting Light In
Words of Light
“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?”
— Isaiah 43:19 (NIV)
Reflection
It’s easy to feel like you’re behind.
Behind the timeline you set.
Behind your dreams.
Behind where you thought you’d be.
But Spring doesn’t rush to bloom. It waits for the thaw, the right warmth, and the exact conditions where growth can take root and stay.
If your healing has felt slow, if your progress has felt invisible—breathe. You are not behind. You are becoming.
This is the season to gently return to yourself. Not with pressure but with presence.
Let go of the timeline.
Let in the light.
Affirmation
I am not behind. I am in bloom—on time and in alignment.
Peace,
Rita
