Notice, if you will, the secret vernal pond.
Springing up every spring, it houses thousands of frog and salamander eggs. Notice the white puffs on the water; these eggs will hatch soon.
Notice the hidden pond as I approach through dense trees. I think of Isaiah 43:18-19
“Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth; will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.“
