The life you have been given is the very place where God wants to encounter you. It's not about waiting until you have everything figured out, become perfect, or until life settles down and you have more time.

I have a garden bed attached to my house that I've filled with herbs for the last four years. However, my husband, Ethan, often remarked that they looked more like a weed bed than a properly maintained garden. While they may not have had extravagant appearances—except for the Russian Sage—they produced useful, beautiful, and fragrant herbs. Overall, they seemed rather basic, unimportant, and unkempt.
