Perhaps you feel like you’re in a desert today. Perhaps you feel like everything is a struggle. Know that God does not waste your seasons. What feels like a tough time in a dry spot, may be because God is stretching you and growing you. He is grooming you for the next thing He has for you. He is growing you for the next season in your life. Be encouraged today.
You can grow, even in the desert.
Others are looking to you & need to see what God can do in those tough times of life. Perhaps His purpose for you right now is that He needs you to be that flower blooming in the desert, with others who are in this same season. You can have joy knowing that His hand is upon you. He will be your strength. It’s time to grow.
“Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the LORD! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! The Sovereign LORD is my strength!”
Habakkuk 3:17-19 NLT
