Some days you may feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders especially this time of year. And, in all fairness, maybe it truly is.

April showers fall. In some parts of the world it snows a heavy and wet Spring snow. The roads may become muddy with sludge or flash flooding waters flow in the rainy parts of the world. Depression, anxiety and gloom can surround us.

Dear Beautiful one, I too understand each difficulty can hit you like wave upon wave with every attempt to deplete you.

Hold on

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Matthew 11:28-30

The rains pour down and the Spring winds blow in to knock off the old, dead, dying foliage in order to allow all the nutrients to be received by the strong, healthy branches.

Like the budding of the trees we too will soon be past our circumstance, difficulty or trial.

For now the winter is past;

the rain has ended and gone away.

The blossoms appear in the countryside.

The time of singing has come,

and the turtledove’s cooing is heard in our land.

Song of Solomon 2:11-12 (HCSB)

…the blossoming vines give off their fragrance.

It is in the trials of our lives that God is further molding, forming, planning and preparing us for the glorious riches He has so effortlessly crafted. At every turn and in every circumstance thank God and know you are one month, one week, one day, one hour and even one second closer to seeing and receiving all the riches He has for you.

I pray encouragement over you today that the circumstances and events do not deplete you, but that you are rehydrated, restored and renewed in your faith by His Word.

Take your petitions to Him. Pour it all out at His feet for He already knows. He wants to hear from you and know you trust Him in “this” whatever your “this” is. Your breakthrough is right around the corner.

Bloom my friend…bloom. Give Him everything. Run to Him. He is waiting.

God bless y’all!
