  New Life

Standing on Mt Tamborine are numerous tree stumps of large forest trees that were felled years ago, but now have growing from within them a small sapling. This new life began from a seed dropped by a visiting bird. The seed, usually a fig, germinates and begins to grow in the rotting core of the stump. As the fig matures and spreads out it's roots it will eventually take over and become a massive adult tree.

To me this is a picture of what is possible when we open our lives to God. God responds by planting the seed of new life within us that will, over time, positively nurture and shape our souls.

Available as a postcard and a standard print.
