Everything Dies a Little...in Order to Experience New Growth...

Take for instance a basket of flowers.
You know...those gorgeous hanging ones you can buy at the store.....? Luscious; beautiful.
Two weeks later....they're draggin along...not as wonderful as the day you bought them.....
So, as the experienced gardener you are, you trim them back....hack em down....they endure a little pain and end up flowerless. Then in no time, they're back to the way you got them--only even more flower-bearing! Superb! Sweet scented! Amazing!

We are the basket of flowers.
God is our gardener....
and for our own benefit, sometimes He makes us endure storms...sometimes he cuts us back a little...
But in the end we're only gonna be even more happier then how we originally came about to be.

God loves us. He always will. He has faith in us. Just as the experienced gardener trusts his flowers will come back even more beautiful then before, so does God trust we will be gratified and even more beautified given some time.

Know these hard times are for the better.
xoxo
