Looking at the beauty of spring time, I noticed all of the trees that were in bloom. The trees were budding and blooming with all kinds of gorgeous flowers all around me. My trees in the backyard had also started to bloom. But the one in the front, that everyone sees, was not producing anything. I wasn’t sure if this tree would even bloom at all, considering that I hadn’t lived here yet this time last year. It seemed as if every house on the block had a flowered tree except for me. Oh well, I thought. I guess I’ll just have to admire the other trees on the block. But then, 2 weeks later, something happened. My front tree started budding. Before I knew it, it was full with beautiful flowers. My tree was different from the others. The flowers were a different kind. Even though there were a variety of trees that bloomed at the same time, it wasn’t time for mine to show its beauty.
God makes everything beautiful in its time (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
Sometimes we get caught up admiring when watching other people are blooming and we get discouraged because we have can’t see our time coming. Our back trees, the ones that nobody sees, are ready. We’ve been through the process. We’ve endured the trials. We’ve passed the tests. We’ve prayed. We’ve believed. We even took time to admire the ones that are ready, but we don’t know if our time will come.
God will showcase you when He’s ready, when you’re ready. He hasn’t forgotten you. Good trees produce good fruit! When you bloom, your fruit will be different than all of the other trees have produced. Your purpose will meet its time. Don’t lose hope. Keep watch. You may seem like a late bloomer, but God’s timing is perfect.
Matthew 12:33 (NKJV)
A Tree Known by Its Fruit
33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.
Jeremiah 29:11 (NKJV)
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Just like Jeremiah, your purpose was ordained before you were even born. Keep having hope for your future. You are beautiful. Your time is coming!
Father, we thank You that you make everything beautiful in its time. Give us patience as we wait for our time. Help us not give up hope for our future. Forgive us for doubting You and getting envious while admiring the beauty of others. We want to be good trees that produce god fruit. If there is anything left in us that is not good, show us so that we may be delivered. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen!
