Delayed Bloomer

The trees here have already budded their leaves and are out fully. This one tree has just now started. Delayed bloomer. Yet God made it. How many people deal with delays? I don't mean intellectual delays, though that can fit too, I mean overall. How many delays do we deal with daily? Don't they totally annoy you like they do me?

How often do we feel like God is delaying something for us? Often right? Yet His timing is perfect right? We keep telling ourselves that but do we REALLY believe it? Do we REALLY believe that God has the perfect plan for us despite the delays and storms?

If you are like me, you struggle with that.

Now look at the following pic.

That plant shouldn't even belong there right? It's the only thing growing on this cliff side. Yet it is there. God allowed it to grow there. Why? No idea yet then shouldn't we also bloom where we are planted no matter how delayed we are in blooming or how odd we feel being where God wanted us? Easy? Absolutely not. Yet it's better then growing bitter because we feel we aren't where WE ourselves feel we should be.

So bloom where you are planted. Pray about where God wants you. Easy? No but we must.
 

My storm today: My back is sore. Hoping for answers for my son tomorrow...
My Rainbow: Beautiful day outside!

What's yours?


Blessings!
