In Jeremiah chapter 17 7-8 we see "Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord And whose trust IS the Lord. For he will be like a tree planted by the water,that extends its roots by a stream and will not fear when the heat comes;BUT ITS leaves will be green,AND it will not be anxious in a year of drought NOR cease to yeild Fruit. Before reading on please dwell on this scripture. one more, this one from psalms 1:3 which says "He will be like a tree firmly planted by the steams of water,Which yields its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither;AND!!! in whatever he DOES,he prospers!" In our lives brothers and sisters,we are thrown into the weeds of life,many are choking and dieing because,of so many weeds around them,some people,are going to stay miserable,that is what they enjoy,no matter what you say,or even show them,they are not only content to stay in the weeds,but to be one of the weeds themselves looking to choke you into them! This what seems an innocent act to us,becomes bondage. mark I am looking to help them,sure!! understand,just remember,present them the truth,and if they choose to stay in the weeds,don't you stay in there with them! For the end result will be what they found out themselves,you will become a weed in life as well.Life is not about being fair,it is about becoming an overcomer,and to become an overcomer,why you have to have something to overcome, like money problems,sickness,why even the loss of a loved one. It would be so easy to become down trodden,it is so easy to feel bad about ones self.But Jesus came to live in us,so we could bloom in him,so we can cut the weeds around us,so Jesus can do what he has always wanted to do!! LIVE BIG in us! a man in porto Rico was born to a very poor family,he lived next to a very poorly taken care of Golf course,he thought wow!! GOLF!! I sure would love to play,but he had no money,so he went out in his yard,broke down part of a tree,made it into a golf club,and stated hitting bottle tops,it is all that he had at the time,but his love for golf was so,he did not care! at age 15 he was asked if he wished to caddie by a man who saw this for some years,at 22 he enlisted into the Army,and when he came out,he saved enough money to buy a bag of golf Clubs,he went back home, and met a man,who asked if he wanted to train to play golf? The man said I saw you as a small child,and watched you grow,to still love the game. NOTHING!! stopped this man from growing!! He bloomed where he was planted,and this mans name is jaun,know to many throughout the World as senior champion 5 times Chi chi Rodregus( forgive the spelling please) one of the most beloved golfers of all time! He bloomed where he was planted,he did not allow the weeds of life to choke him.And GOD!!! sent people to him,to help! As if we bloom where we are planted God will send someone for you to!! So do not look at what is around you,nor fear how others can hurt you,Bloom!! In Jesus,and the weeds will part,just like the Red Sea parted for Moses! BLOOM for it is the Season for you to Bloom!! Remember you will always do, what you most want to do!(James 1:22) DO BLOOM, do show others what a beautiful tree in Jesus you can be!! many will see,they will flock under your tree,for they will see what you have become!! A comfort in our Jesus! May this encourge you all today,to BLOOM! amen
