God Is The Gardener. You Are His Plant.

“God is the gardener here. He knows what He wants you to be.” Hugh B. Brown

 None of us knows what our future holds, even though we'd like to think that we do. We have no idea what is going to happen, or even who it is that we are going to be, in the future. And trust me, I know that not knowing these things can be stressful, scary, and even at times a bit overwhelming with how much it is that you don't know, but listen, you may not know where you are headed, but God knows exactly where it is that He has you to be.
 You see, like the quote mentions above, we should think of God as a gardener and you as His plant. He is growing you, He is taking care of you, and giving you exactly what you need to keep growing. And see, us as this plant, we don't know what we are going to be yet; we don't have any flowers or buds growing with us that could tell us what we are going to be, well, at least not yet. But God, your gardener, knows exactly what it is that you are going to grow into. He knows, and He is going to care for you, providing you with all you need, and make sure that you grow into what it is that He knows that you will be.
 So today, just trust God with all that lies ahead of you, hand it all over to Him, and allow Him to grow you into the person and the life that He has for you.

  1. He grows us so we can ultimately produce the Fruit of the Spirit... not by our own making but by his tender tending... :)
