Three Weeks Only
We have a peach flowering tree in our backyard, the tree has many beautiful flowers, but they only last for 3 weeks. The tree looks ugly for almost the entire year because it has no leaves. It looks like a dead tree for more than 6 months.
Another thing that we can get from the flowering peach tree is the beautiful flowers. One flower has four different colors. It has white, pink, green and also yellow. It might be one of the most gorgeous flowers in the world. But, is the tree put any effort into making the flower as attractive as it is? Of course not. It is all because of the grace of God.
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end — Ecclesiastes 3:11

If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you — you of little faith? — Matthew 6:30
When we are worried about our needs, let us look at one of the most beautiful flowers in the world. The flower that only lasts for three weeks is created that pretty by God. We are the ones after God’s own heart will never be left alone. When facing trouble in this life, look for God’s kingdom first, and God should take care of the rest.
Let’s put our faith in Jesus Christ. He is our steady rock, the source of our hope. He is God who always abides by His words. So let’s find His kingdom first and trust in Him for our care.
