One of our speakers at Missions School was author Alicia Britt Chole. It was one of the most powerful and thought provoking sessions we had. She spoke about anonymous seasons in our lives, when it seems no one is interested in our capabilities or dreams. Alicia compares these seasons in our lives with the "hidden years" in Jesus' life. 30 years of being relatively uncelebrated and unnoticed.
One of most powerful quotes I have pondered from this session is "Anonymous seasons are sacred spaces to be rested in, not rushed through-and most definitely never to be regretted." Mmmm....
The entire session was based upon Alicia's book called, "Anonymous...Jesus' hidden years and yours". I got a signed copy that I am using for a devotional. I highly recommend it!
Do you need to recognize this anonymous season in your life as a sacred space?
