Ready the Soil

Good morning and happy Friday. So as every good parent knows, you can't give your kid everything they want. Some things are bad or can hurt them and some, they are just not ready for. Hmm, that's sounds familiar. In order for a crop to do well the soil has to be ready. It has to be prepared for what is needed so that a crop can grow. Sometimes when God doesn't seem to be moving in our lives, it may be we're not ready yet for what He wants from us. Our hearts are the field that the seed is planted in. It has to be tilled and made ready. A hard heart will not receive the seed and let it take root. Even in our areas of suffering, God can make us fruitful. You have to be willing to see beyond your circumstances. He has not forsaken or forgot you, it's just that some soil takes more plowing to get ready. In love always <><
