black-acorn

Good morning…

Walking our dog in the cool of the morning, I found a black acorn for the first time ever. Returning home, I googled, “Why are some acorns black?” Here I found a simple answer: “Producing black acorns is a sign of stress. Immature seeds die mid-growth, with the stalk, or pedicle, withering on the twig.”

Stress. Immature seeds. Dying mid-growth. Withering on the twig.

I wonder to myself, “What are the black acorns dropping from our lives in the stress of 2020?”

Do you wonder too?

But let My vineyard look to Me for protection and nurture; let it seek My peace; let it seek My peace (Isaiah 27:5, VOICE).
